The Government of The Bahamas welcomes the agreement dated 14th July between the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Russia, and China, as well as the European Union and the Islamic Republic of Iran on the use of nuclear energy by Iran.

The Bahamas supports the right of sovereign states to develop nuclear technology for peaceful purposes in accordance with international norms.

The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has been charged with the responsibility of determining adherence to international regulations. We express our confidence in the efforts of the IAEA in this matter.

The Bahamas hopes that all sides will honour in good faith their commitments and fulfill the Agreement. The Bahamas supports the nuclear agreement between the US and Iran and aligns itself with the other supporters of this historic agreement.

The Bahamas believes that dialogue is the most effective tool in resolving disputes.
