After the IAEA Board of Governors reported Iran's noncompliance with its safeguards agreement to the UN Security Council, the Council demanded that Iran suspend its nuclear enrichment activities while Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has argued that the sanctions are " illegal ," imposed by " arrogant powers ," and that Iran has decided to pursue the monitoring of its self-described peaceful nuclear program through " its appropriate legal path ," the International Atomic Energy Agency.

The IAEA classifies safety as one of its top three priorities, yet is spending only 8. 9 percent of its 352 million-euro ($ 469 million ) regular budget in 2011 on making plants secure from accidents.

The International Atomic Energy Agency ( IAEA ) is an international organization that seeks to promote the peaceful use of nuclear energy, and to inhibit its use for any military purpose, including nuclear weapons.

The IAEA serves as an intergovernmental forum for scientific and technical cooperation in the peaceful use of nuclear technology and nuclear power worldwide.

The programs of the IAEA encourage the development of the peaceful applications of nuclear technology, provide international safeguards against misuse of nuclear technology and nuclear materials, and promote nuclear safety ( including radiation protection ) and nuclear security standards and their implementation.

The IAEA executes this mission with three main functions: the inspection of existing nuclear facilities to ensure their peaceful use, providing information and developing standards to ensure the safety and security of nuclear facilities, and as a hub for the various fields of science involved in the peaceful applications of nuclear technology.

Article II of the IAEA Statute defines the Agency's twin objectives as promoting peaceful uses of atomic energy and "< nowiki > ensur </ nowiki >, so far as it is able, that assistance provided by it or at its request or under its supervision or control is not used in such a way as to further any military purpose.
