We are aware of Darkovin for a long time.
It is not a nuclear power plant at the moment, at least.
So this is why I said a few days ago, when the first news of a possible attack were issued by Iran, we were shocked.
I think, very clear to say from the beginning, well, there's no nuclear material here.

There is, of course, an intention to have a nuclear reactor at some point and some initial construction work there.
I don't know.
I think we should be there already.
It should be soon.
The MOU, if you remember, said that within this timeframe of 60 days to have a definitive agreement, that all activities related
to the monitoring and verification in Iran would be carried out under the supervision, and I'm quoting, the supervision of the IEA, as it should, because let's not forget that Iran continues to be a contracting party to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, the NPT, and because of this they have a safeguards agreement with us.

First of all, that is in gas form.
