In a recent statement, Ali Larijani threatened Rafael Grossi, the Director General of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), during a public appearance. Larijani criticized Grossi for his previous comments, where Grossi claimed that the IAEA has accurate information indicating that Iran is not pursuing nuclear weapons and will not do so for years. Larijani questioned why the IAEA published a report contradicting this assertion and suggested that accountability for such actions is necessary, although he believes the time for that is not now.
