Iran"s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi announced on November 16, 2025, that Tehran has suspended all uranium enrichment activities. He stated that the remaining facilities are now under full oversight of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). Araghchi attributed the halt in enrichment to the destruction of key sites, including Natanz and Fordow, during Israeli-U.S. airstrikes in June.
This development marks a significant shift in Iran"s nuclear program, which has been a point of contention in international relations. The IAEA"s increased oversight will likely impact future negotiations regarding Iran"s nuclear capabilities.
