Iran: Nuclear Inspections Possible Only After Final Deal, Official Says
Iran’s Deputy Foreign Minister stated on Tuesday that international inspections of its nuclear facilities would only be possible after a final agreement is reached, pushing back against recent claims from the United States. The remarks, reported by a state-affiliated media outlet, directly contradict the timeline suggested by former U.S. President Donald Trump, who said on Monday that an agreement had been secured with Iran to keep the Strait of Hormuz open and that Iran had consented to long-term nuclear inspections as part of the negotiations.
