                Resolution 1929 (2010) *
                Adopted by the Security Council at its 6335th meeting, on
                9 June 2010

                     The Security Council,
                     Recalling the Statement of its President, S/PRST/2006/15, and its resolutions
                1696 (2006), 1737 (2006), 1747 (2007), 1803 (2008), 1835 (2008), and 1887 (2009)
                and reaffirming their provisions,
                      Reaffirming its commitment to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear
                Weapons, the need for all States Party to that Treaty to comply fully with all their
                obligations, and recalling the right of States Party, in conformity with Articles I
                and II of that Treaty, to develop research, production and use of nuclear energy for
                peaceful purposes without discrimination,
                     Recalling the resolution of the IAEA Board of Governors (GOV/2006/14),
                which states that a solution to the Iranian nuclear issue would contribute to global
                non-proliferation efforts and to realizing the objective of a Middle East free of
                weapons of mass destruction, including their means of delivery,
                     Noting with serious concern that, as confirmed by the reports of 27 February
                2006 (GOV/2006/15), 8 June 2006 (GOV/2006/38), 31 August 2006 (GOV/2006/53),

                2010 (GOV/2010/28) of the Director General of the International Atomic Energy
                Agency (IAEA), Iran has not established full and sustained suspension of all
                enrichment-related and reprocessing activities and heavy water-related projects as
                set out in resolutions 1696 (2006), 1737 (2006), 1747 (2007) and 1803 (2008) nor
                resumed its cooperation with the IAEA under the Additional Protocol, nor
                cooperated with the IAEA in connection with the remaining issues of concern,
                which need to be clarified to exclude the possibility of military dimensions of Iran’s
                nuclear programme, nor taken the other steps required by the IAEA Board of
                Governors, nor complied with the provisions of Security Council resolutions 1696

S/RES/1929 (2010)


               (2006), 1737 (2006), 1747 (2007) and 1803 (2008) and which are essential to build
               confidence, and deploring Iran’s refusal to take these steps,
                     Reaffirming that outstanding issues can be best resolved and confidence built
               in the exclusively peaceful nature of Iran’s nuclear programme by Iran responding
               positively to all the calls which the Council and the IAEA Board of Governors have
               made on Iran,
                     Noting with serious concern the role of elements of the Islamic Revolutionary
               Guard Corps (IRGC, also known as “Army of the Guardians of the Islamic
               Revolution”), including those specified in Annex D and E of resolution 1737 (2006),
               Annex I of resolution 1747 (2007) and Annex II of this resolution, in Iran’s
               proliferation sensitive nuclear activities and the development of nuclear weapon
               delivery systems,
                     Noting with serious concern that Iran has constructed an enrichment facility at
               Qom in breach of its obligations to suspend all enrichment-related activities, and
               that Iran failed to notify it to the IAEA until September 2009, which is inconsistent
               with its obligations under the Subsidiary Arrangements to its Safeguards Agreement,
                     Also noting the resolution of the IAEA Board of Governors (GOV/2009/82),
               which urges Iran to suspend immediately construction at Qom, and to clarify the
               facility’s purpose, chronology of design and construction, and calls upon Iran to
               confirm, as requested by the IAEA, that it has not taken a decision to construct, or
               authorize construction of, any other nuclear facility which has as yet not been
               declared to the IAEA,
                    Noting with serious concern that Iran has enriched uranium to 20 per cent, and
               did so without notifying the IAEA with sufficient time for it to adjust the existing
               safeguards procedures,
                      Noting with concern that Iran has taken issue with the IAEA’s right to verify
               design information which had been provided by Iran pursuant to the modified
               Code 3.1, and emphasizing that in accordance with Article 39 of Iran’s Safeguards
               Agreement Code 3.1 cannot be modified nor suspended unilaterally and that the
               IAEA’s right to verify design information provided to it is a continuing right, which
               is not dependent on the stage of construction of, or the presence of nuclear material
               at, a facility,
                      Reiterating its determination to reinforce the authority of the IAEA, strongly
               supporting the role of the IAEA Board of Governors, and commending the IAEA for
               its efforts to resolve outstanding issues relating to Iran’s nuclear programme,
                     Expressing the conviction that the suspension set out in paragraph 2 of
               resolution 1737 (2006) as well as full, verified Iranian compliance with the
               requirements set out by the IAEA Board of Governors would contribute to a
               diplomatic, negotiated solution that guarantees Iran’s nuclear programme is for
               exclusively peaceful purposes,
                    Emphasizing the importance of political and diplomatic efforts to find a
               negotiated solution guaranteeing that Iran’s nuclear programme is exclusively for
               peaceful purposes and noting in this regard the efforts of Turkey and Brazil towards
               an agreement with Iran on the Tehran Research Reactor that could serve as a
               confidence-building measure,



2                                                                                                      10-36979

                                                                                                   S/RES/1929 (2010)


                 Emphasizing also, however, in the context of these efforts, the importance of
           Iran addressing the core issues related to its nuclear programme,
                Stressing that China, France, Germany, the Russian Federation, the United
           Kingdom and the United States are willing to take further concrete measures on
           exploring an overall strategy of resolving the Iranian nuclear issue through
           negotiation on the basis of their June 2006 proposals (S/2006/521) and their June
           2008 proposals (INFCIRC/730), and noting the confirmation by these countries that
           once the confidence of the international community in the exclusively peaceful
           nature of Iran’s nuclear programme is restored it will be treated in the same manner
           as that of any Non-Nuclear Weapon State Party to the Treaty on the
           Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons,
                 Welcoming the guidance issued by the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) to
           assist States in implementing their financial obligations under resolutions 1737
           (2006) and 1803 (2008), and recalling in particular the need to exercise vigilance
           over transactions involving Iranian banks, including the Central Bank of Iran, so as
           to prevent such transactions contributing to proliferation-sensitive nuclear activities,
           or to the development of nuclear weapon delivery systems,
                 Recognizing that access to diverse, reliable energy is critical for sustainable
           growth and development, while noting the potential connection between Iran’s
           revenues derived from its energy sector and the funding of Iran’s proliferationsensitive nuclear activities, and further noting that chemical process equipment and
           materials required for the petrochemical industry have much in common with those
           required for certain sensitive nuclear fuel cycle activities,
                Having regard to States’ rights and obligations relating to international trade,
                 Recalling that the law of the sea, as reflected in the United Nations Convention
           on the Law of the Sea (1982), sets out the legal framework applicable to ocean
           activities,
                 Calling for the ratification of the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty by
           Iran at an early date,
                 Determined to give effect to its decisions by adopting appropriate measures to
           persuade Iran to comply with resolutions 1696 (2006), 1737 (2006), 1747 (2007)
           and 1803 (2008) and with the requirements of the IAEA, and also to constrain Iran’s
           development of sensitive technologies in support of its nuclear and missile
           programmes, until such time as the Security Council determines that the objectives
           of these resolutions have been met,
                Concerned by the proliferation risks presented by the Iranian nuclear
           programme and mindful of its primary responsibility under the Charter of the United
           Nations for the maintenance of international peace and security,
                 Stressing that nothing in this resolution compels States to take measures or
           actions exceeding the scope of this resolution, including the use of force or the
           threat of force,
                Acting under Article 41 of Chapter VII of the Charter of the United Nations,
                1.   Affirms that Iran has so far failed to meet the requirements of the IAEA
           Board of Governors and to comply with resolutions 1696 (2006), 1737 (2006), 1747
           (2007) and 1803 (2008);


10-36979                                                                                                          3

S/RES/1929 (2010)


                     2.   Affirms that Iran shall without further delay take the steps required by the
               IAEA Board of Governors in its resolutions GOV/2006/14 and GOV/2009/82, which
               are essential to build confidence in the exclusively peaceful purpose of its nuclear
               programme, to resolve outstanding questions and to address the serious concerns
               raised by the construction of an enrichment facility at Qom in breach of its
               obligations to suspend all enrichment-related activities, and, in this context, further
               affirms its decision that Iran shall without delay take the steps required in
               paragraph 2 of resolution 1737 (2006);
                     3.   Reaffirms that Iran shall cooperate fully with the IAEA on all outstanding
               issues, particularly those which give rise to concerns about the possible military
               dimensions of the Iranian nuclear programme, including by providing access
               without delay to all sites, equipment, persons and documents requested by the
               IAEA, and stresses the importance of ensuring that the IAEA have all necessary
               resources and authority for the fulfilment of its work in Iran;
                    4.   Requests the Director General of the IAEA to communicate to the
               Security Council all his reports on the application of safeguards in Iran;
                     5.    Decides that Iran shall without delay comply fully and without
               qualification with its IAEA Safeguards Agreement, including through the
               application of modified Code 3.1 of the Subsidiary Arrangement to its Safeguards
               Agreement, calls upon Iran to act strictly in accordance with the provisions of the
               Additional Protocol to its IAEA Safeguards Agreement that it signed on
               18 December 2003, calls upon Iran to ratify promptly the Additional Protocol, and
               reaffirms that, in accordance with Articles 24 and 39 of Iran’s Safeguards
               Agreement, Iran’s Safeguards Agreement and its Subsidiary Arrangement, including
               modified Code 3.1, cannot be amended or changed unilaterally by Iran, and notes
               that there is no mechanism in the Agreement for the suspension of any of the
               provisions in the Subsidiary Arrangement;
                     6.    Reaffirms that, in accordance with Iran’s obligations under previous
               resolutions to suspend all reprocessing, heavy water-related and enrichment-related
               activities, Iran shall not begin construction on any new uranium-enrichment,
               reprocessing, or heavy water-related facility and shall discontinue any ongoing
               construction of any uranium-enrichment, reprocessing, or heavy water-related
               facility;
                     7.    Decides that Iran shall not acquire an interest in any commercial activity
               in another State involving uranium mining, production or use of nuclear materials
               and technology as listed in INFCIRC/254/Rev.9/Part 1, in particular uraniumenrichment and reprocessing activities, all heavy-water activities or technologyrelated to ballistic missiles capable of delivering nuclear weapons, and further
               decides that all States shall prohibit such investment in territories under their
               jurisdiction by Iran, its nationals, and entities incorporated in Iran or subject to its
               jurisdiction, or by persons or entities acting on their behalf or at their direction, or
               by entities owned or controlled by them;
                     8.    Decides that all States shall prevent the direct or indirect supply, sale or
               transfer to Iran, from or through their territories or by their nationals or individuals
               subject to their jurisdiction, or using their flag vessels or aircraft, and whether or not
               originating in their territories, of any battle tanks, armoured combat vehicles, large
               calibre artillery systems, combat aircraft, attack helicopters, warships, missiles or



4                                                                                                           10-36979

                                                                                                   S/RES/1929 (2010)


           missile systems as defined for the purpose of the United Nations Register of
           Conventional Arms, or related materiel, including spare parts, or items as
           determined by the Security Council or the Committee established pursuant to
           resolution 1737 (2006) (“the Committee”), decides further that all States shall
           prevent the provision to Iran by their nationals or from or through their territories of
           technical training, financial resources or services, advice, other services or
           assistance related to the supply, sale, transfer, provision, manufacture, maintenance
           or use of such arms and related materiel, and, in this context, calls upon all States to
           exercise vigilance and restraint over the supply, sale, transfer, provision,
           manufacture and use of all other arms and related materiel;
                 9.    Decides that Iran shall not undertake any activity related to ballistic
           missiles capable of delivering nuclear weapons, including launches using ballistic
           missile technology, and that States shall take all necessary measures to prevent the
           transfer of technology or technical assistance to Iran related to such activities;
                 10. Decides that all States shall take the necessary measures to prevent the
           entry into or transit through their territories of individuals designated in Annex C, D
           and E of resolution 1737 (2006), Annex I of resolution 1747 (2007), Annex I of
           resolution 1803 (2008) and Annexes I and II of this resolution, or by the Security
           Council or the Committee pursuant to paragraph 10 of resolution 1737 (2006),
           except where such entry or transit is for activities directly related to the provision to
           Iran of items in subparagraphs 3(b)(i) and (ii) of resolution 1737 (2006) in
           accordance with paragraph 3 of resolution 1737 (2006), underlines that nothing in
           this paragraph shall oblige a State to refuse its own nationals entry into its territory,
           and decides that the measures imposed in this paragraph shall not apply when the
           Committee determines on a case-by-case basis that such travel is justified on the
           grounds of humanitarian need, including religious obligations, or where the
           Committee concludes that an exemption would otherwise further the objectives of
           this resolution, including where Article XV of the IAEA Statute is engaged;
                  11. Decides that the measures specified in paragraphs 12, 13, 14 and 15 of
           resolution 1737 (2006) shall apply also to the individuals and entities listed in
           Annex I of this resolution and to any individuals or entities acting on their behalf or
           at their direction, and to entities owned or controlled by them, including through
           illicit means, and to any individuals and entities determined by the Council or the
           Committee to have assisted designated individuals or entities in evading sanctions
           of, or in violating the provisions of, resolutions 1737 (2006), 1747 (2007), 1803
