Ou como rejeitar a sequência de um acordo voluntário adicional ao que IAEA pede como procedimento normal, mas acordo (de Paris) este em que a IAEA não é parte, se torna aparentemente uma exigência da IAEA e motivo para o Conselho de Segurança.
Acordo de Paris (pdf):
"Communication dated 26 November received from the Permanent Representatives France, Germany, the Islamic Republic and the United Kingdom concerning agreement signed in Paris on 15 November 2004
"(...) Iran has decided, on a voluntary basis, to continue and extend its suspension to include all enrichment related and reprocessing activities, and specifically: the manufacture and import of gas centrifuges and their components; the assembly, installation, testing or operation of gas centrifuges; work to undertake any plutonium separation, or to construct or operate any plutonium separation installation; and all tests or production at any uranium conversion installation. The IAEA will be notified of this suspension and invited to verify and monitor it. The suspension will be implemented in time for the IAEA to confirm before the November Board that it has been put into effect. The suspension will be sustained while negotiations proceed on a
mutually acceptable agreement on long-term arrangements.
The E3/EU recognize that this suspension is a voluntary confidence building measure and not a legal obligation.
(...)
Irrespective of progress on the nuclear issue, the E3/EU and Iran confirm their determination to combat terrorism, including the activities of Al Qa'ida and other terrorist groups such as the MeK. They also confirm their continued support for the political process in Iraq aimed at establishing a constitutionally elected Government."
But when the Brits-French-Germans finally got around to submitting their proposal, it explicitly required Iran "not to pursue fuel cycle activities other than the construction and operation of light-water power and research reactors" – in complete violation of the spirit and letter of the so-called Paris Agreement [.pdf].
Now the IAEA was not a party to the negotiations. Nevertheless, under extreme U.S. pressure, the IAEA Board "urged" [.pdf] Iran to accept the offer even though they would essentially be requiring, thereby, Iran to forfeit its "inalienable" rights, guaranteed by the NPT and the Iranian Safeguards Agreement.
Well, Iran didn't accept, and they have since resumed some of the safeguarded activities they had voluntarily suspended.
The reaction of our secretary of state?
"We agree that the Iranian regime's defiant resumption of uranium enrichment work leaves the EU with no choice but to request an emergency meeting of the IAEA board of governors … to report Iran's noncompliance with its safeguards obligations to the UN Security Council."
What "noncompliance"? And defying whom?" What Noncompliance? by Gordon Prather
