Iran’s foreign ministry called a resolution by the UN atomic watchdog’s board of governors “anti-Iranian” and threatened unspecified retaliatory actions, state media reported on Friday, November 21.

The International Atomic Energy Agency on Thursday (November 20) demanded that Iran fully cooperate with the agency and provide “precise information” about its stockpile of near weapons-grade uranium, as well as grant its inspectors access to Iranian nuclear sites.

A report by the official IRNA news agency on Friday quoted foreign ministry spokesman Esmail Baghaei as saying that Iran informed the Vienna-based IAEA in a letter that it in addition to ending an agreement forged over the summer in Cairo, the Iranian government could take “other actions” in response to Thursday’s resolution.
