A senior official from the U.N. nuclear watchdog will arrive in Iran for talks on Monday, but no visit to nuclear sites is planned, Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said on Sunday
Iran’s Foreign Minister said that upcoming negotiations with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) will focus on establishing a new framework for cooperation. The Agency’s Deputy Director General is scheduled to visit Tehran today (11 August).
“There are no plans for open inspections. We have not yet reached an agreement on the new framework, and cooperation will not begin until such an agreement is in place. This new framework will be firmly based on the law passed by the esteemed Iranian Parliament,” he added.
Araghchi added that discussions will focus only on bilateral cooperation about the Islamic Republic’s peaceful nuclear programme.
