Iran will continue its discussions with the U.N. nuclear watchdog, with another round of talks expected in the coming days, according to Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei.
This follows a period during which the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) inspectors have been unable to access Iran's nuclear sites after they were bombed in June by Israel and the U.S., despite IAEA chief Rafael Grossi emphasising that inspections remain a priority.
Baghaei noted that while Iran's relationship with the IAEA has shifted following the attacks, talks will continue directly. Iran has criticized the IAEA for a May report that led the agency’s Board of Governors to accuse Iran of breaching non-proliferation obligations.
Tehran denies allegations of pursuing nuclear weapons, reaffirming its commitment to the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT).
Last month, Iran passed a law suspending certain IAEA cooperation, requiring future inspections to be approved by the Supreme National Security Council.
