UN nuclear chief says inspectors will visit Iran sites as part of war deal
Rafael Grossi, head of the International Atomic Energy Agency, said inspectors will visit Iranian nuclear sites as part of the deal to end the war. An Iranian minister said such access would only come as part of a final deal with the US.
Rafael Grossi, head of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), said inspectors will visit Iranian nuclear sites as part of the deal to end the war. Grossi said the agency is «working on modalities».
However, an Iranian minister said such access would only happen as part of a final deal with the US. The statements show the two sides still hold differing positions on the details of the agreement.
Nuclear inspections are among the central issues in the US-Iran negotiations. Observers say inspectors' access to the sites could shape the course of the deal in the weeks ahead.
