The head of the UN nuclear watchdog, International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) director Rafael Grossi, welcomes the interim peace memorandum signed by the United States and Iran and says implementation work has now started. Speaking in Geneva, Grossi says the agreement creates the basis for “concrete steps” and that the IAEA will move into technical discussions to help put the deal into practice. He adds that the next phase involves the IAEA meeting with American and Iranian counterparts to outline and formulate specific actions required under the agreement. The reports describe the process as focused on implementation details rather than political negotiations, with the IAEA positioned to coordinate and map out practical steps. Both outlets frame the memorandum as a trigger for immediate technical engagement by the IAEA, indicating that technical planning and inter-sessional discussions with relevant parties begin following the deal’s signing. The reporting does not specify further operational details or timelines beyond the initiation of technical work.
