Iran Considers Suspending Cooperation with UN Nuclear Watchdog
Imagine Iran and some other countries are like friends, and they have agreed to work together on nuclear stuff.
There's a group called the IAEA that checks if everyone is playing fair.
Now, some people in Iran's government are upset and don't trust the IAEA anymore.
They want to stop working with them unless they promise to be more trustworthy.
They're making a new rule, a bill, to stop the cooperation.
They want the IAEA to show them they're being professional and fair.
If the rule passes, it could change how Iran works with the rest of the world on these nuclear projects.
Iranian parliament is considering a bill to suspend cooperation with the UN nuclear watchdog, the IAEA.
Ruhollah Motefakerzadeh, a member of parliament's presidium, confirmed the bill's consideration.
Parliament Speaker Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf stated the parliament aims to pass the bill.
The bill seeks 'objective guarantees' of professional behavior from the IAEA.
The news was reported by both IRNA and Reuters.
