Iran contests Austria ban for nuclear chief
The United States barred Iranian Atomic Energy Organization chief Mohammad Eslami from attending the International Atomic Energy Agency conference in Vienna, after Washington objected to granting him an exemption from international sanctions. This decision led to official protests from Iran, which considered it a politicization of the organization, prompting the Iranian Foreign Ministry to summon the Austrian chargé d'affaires to express its rejection. The Austrian side clarified that the request for an exemption from the travel ban for Eslami was rejected by the Security Council, which resulted in his being barred from entry. The U.S. ambassador confirmed that Washington opposed the request because it was being used as a platform for propaganda rather than genuine cooperation on the nuclear inspection file.
