The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has given Iran until the end of October to prove that its nuclear program is peaceful. This decision, made on Friday, caused the Islamic Republic's ambassador to the United Nations to leave the meeting in protest. Although the resolution passed by the IAEA's board sets a deadline, it does not specify the direct consequences of failing to comply with the decision. However, in such a case, the IAEA could report the matter to the Security Council, where Tehran would face sanctions. On Friday morning, Kamal Kharrazi, the Islamic Republic's foreign minister, warned that a resolution against Iran could have negative consequences.
