Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu pointed to the capitulation of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) to the Iranian authorities amid the agency's decision to close the investigation into the uranium enrichment up to 83.7% at the nuclear facility in Fordow, and also to remove the issue of traces of artificial uranium, which were found at an undeclared facility in Merivan. It is reported by RIA Novosti.

“Iran continues to lie to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). The capitulation of the agency to Iranian pressure is a black spot on its reputation,” he said.

According to him, the behavior of the representatives of the agency gives Iran the understanding that they will not have to answer for violations and can "continue to deceive" the international community.

Earlier, Bloomberg, citing a confidential quarterly report from the International Atomic Energy Agency, reported that Iran had replenished its stocks of 60% enriched uranium by almost a third.
