As part of the Iran nuclear deal last July, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) was granted unprecedented intrusive access to Iranian facilities in order to verify Tehran's compliance with the provisions of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action. On Dec. 2, the IAEA submitted a report with three key findings:
Iran had implemented all its commitments on the agreed schedule.
A "range of activities relevant to the development of a nuclear explosive device were conducted in Iran prior to the end of 2003 ... and some activities took place after 2003."
