Of the 190 States in which the IAEA applied safeguards in 2024, 182 had CSAs in force, of which 137 also had APs in force. For 75 of these 137 States, the IAEA concluded that “all nuclear material in these States continues to be used in peaceful activities”. In addition, the Agency was able to make this conclusion, also known as an “expanded conclusion”, for the first time, for Morocco. For 61 States, the IAEA could only conclude that declared nuclear material continues to be used in peaceful activities in these States, as the assessment to ensure that each State does not contain undeclared nuclear material and activities is ongoing.
For 31 States with CSAs in place but no APs in place, the IAEA was able to conclude that the declared nuclear material remains in peaceful activities.
As of the end of 2024, three non-nuclear-weapon States party to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT) have not yet brought into force a CSA in accordance with Article III of that Treaty. For these States, the IAEA has been unable to make any safeguards conclusions.
For three States in which the IAEA implemented safeguards under item-specific safeguards agreements (Israel, India and Pakistan), the Agency concluded that “in these States, nuclear material, facilities or other items to which safeguards were applied continue to be used in peaceful activities.”
Safeguards were also applied to five NPT nuclear-weapon States that had voluntary offer safeguards agreements in force. For these five States (China, France, the Russian Federation, the United Kingdom and the United States), the IAEA concluded that “at selected facilities in these States, nuclear material to which safeguards were applied remains in peaceful activities or has been removed from safeguards as provided for in the agreements.”
