Can the IAEA Effectively Verify an Agreement Between Iran and the P5+1?​

Introduction by:

A conversation with:
Thomas Shea
Former Safeguards Official
International Atomic Energy Agency

Moderated by:
Barbara Slavin
Senior Fellow, South Asia Center
Atlantic Council

The Atlantic Council Iran Task Force and Search for Common Ground invite you to a discussion on the capabilities of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) to monitor a nuclear agreement with Iran. A key issue arising during nuclear negotiations with Iran is the international community's ability to verify Iran's compliance with its nonproliferation obligations.  Former IAEA Safeguards Official Thomas Shea will discuss a new paper on the evolution of techniques used to verify a country's compliance with nuclear safeguards and other nonproliferation obligations. Panelists will also discuss other potential methods to detect - and thus deter - Iran from violating the terms of an agreement.
