TEHRAN, Iran - Iran announced Sunday that it was partially
suspending cooperation with the U.N. nuclear watchdog
agency, citing the "illegal and bullying" U.N. Security
Council sanctions imposed on the country for its refusal
to stop enriching uranium.

Gholam Hossein Elham, a government spokesman, told state
television that the suspension would "continue until Iran's
nuclear case is referred back to the IAEA from the U.N
Security Council."

Elham said the Iranian Cabinet decided Sunday to suspend
"code 1-3 of minor arrangements of the safeguards" with the
International Atomic Energy Agency.

Under Iran's Safeguards Agreements with the IAEA, part of
its commitments under the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty,
the country is obligated to inform the agency six months
before it introduces nuclear material of any kind into
any facility.
