Iran’s recent decision to potentially withdraw cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has drawn international concern, with fears that it may rebuild its nuclear program without inspections. As a signatory of the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT), Iran is obligated to permit monitoring to ensure its nuclear activities remain peaceful. However, the IAEA awaits formal confirmation from Tehran. The U.S. State Department called Iran’s move “unacceptable” and urged full cooperation. Germany and the United Nations echoed similar concerns, warning that Tehran’s action sends a dangerous signal and could derail diplomatic efforts. The announcement follows a recent 12-day conflict between Iran and Israel, during which Israel and the U.S. launched unprecedented strikes on Iranian nuclear and military sites. The global community now watches closely, urging Iran to reverse its course and re-engage in peaceful dialogue to avoid further escalation.
Abba Father, grant wisdom and humility to leaders in Iran and around the world. Let diplomatic channels remain open and may truth, justice, and peace guide every decision (The Bible, Matthew 5:9).
Lord, protect the world from the threat of nuclear war. Turn hearts away from destruction and toward peace. May Your mercy prevail in times of uncertainty (The Bible, Psalm 46:9).
