A picture shows a newspaper stall with a view of Etemaad newspaper's front page with a headline, in Farsi,"The night of the end of the JCPOA," in the capital of Tehran Aug. 16, 2022.upon that Iran continued efforts to illegally secure technology for its atomic, biological and chemical weapons of mass destruction programs.

"We continue to work closely with our allies and partners to use all tools at our disposal to impede these activities, including through interdictions, export controls and sanctions. We will also continue raising our concerns, including at the U.N. and in other public forums, about Iran’s ballistic missile capacity and the need for concerted action to counter it."

"There should be more public reporting of the findings in these intelligence reports," David Albright, a physicist who is the founder and president of the Institute for Science and International Security in Washington, D.C., added."The public and, more importantly, industry need to be alerted about the threat posed by Iran and Russia.

Albright worked closely with the IAEA Action Team from 1992 until 1997 focusing on Iraqi documents and past procurement activities. In 1996, he served as the first non-governmental inspector of the Iraqi nuclear program. "The authorities for the protection of the constitution were able to find, in 2022, a consistently high number of indications of proliferation relevant procurement attempts by Iran for its nuclear programs," the report states.
