The IAEA board of governors declared Iran non-compliant with its nuclear obligations for the first time in 20 years, prompting Iran to announce a new uranium enrichment facility. Nineteen countries voted for the resolution, citing Iran's failure to cooperate with investigations into undeclared nuclear material. Russia, China, and Burkina Faso opposed the resolution. Iran maintains it will increase enriched material production, while the resolution supports diplomatic solutions and warns of potential UN Security Council referral if cooperation fails.
