Iran’s IRIB news center report said that Behrouz Kamalvandi who was talking to reporters on Wednesday about fiber carbon material as raw material for manufacturing centrifuge rotors, objected that the west especially the US had been made extra-JCPOA demands which would not be accepted by AEOI; “they waged much effort during negotiations to include the term ‘inventory’ or the ‘repertoire’ in the text of the deal. ‘Inventory’ is a jargon used in IAEA verification literature. Attempts were opposed by our negotiators with the hindsight that it would create trouble in further interpretation of the text,” he told reporters.
“We managed to exclude ‘inventory’ and to include instead ‘stockpile’ into the text which was approved as final draft; however, they had recently been trying to reinterpret stockpile for inventory; we will never accept such interpretations which go beyond the JCPOA,” Kamalvandi added.
About ‘fiber carbon,’ Kamalvandi said that it had touched the sensitivities of the US as well; “we recommend the US officials to wisely abandon efforts which seek to make extra-deal demands and remain committed to the provisions of the JCPOA,” he told the press, closing his remarks with lavishing gratitude for the Leader of the Islamic Revolution for his ‘support and spiritual ballast’ during the negotiations as well as after that during post-JCPOA era.
