The announcement comes as the IAEA nuclear guard head arrives in Tehran for talks that can revolve around accessibility for inspectors.
The announcement on Wednesday on Iranian state television came as Iran President Masoud Pezeshkian formally approved one of his vice presidents, who served as a teheran key negotiator in his nuclear dealing in 2015. year from the world force.
The head of the United Nations Nuclear Guard, Rafael Grossi arrived in Tehran for talks that may include negotiations on what access to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) can be obtained within any proposed inspections.
The announcement of the state television said that Oman would again mediate Saturday in Rome. The Oman Foreign Minister served as an interlocutor between the two sides during the negotiations last weekend in Muscat, the capital Omani.
On Monday, some officials initially identified RIM as host negotiations, only for Iran to insist early on Tuesday that his team would return to Oman. U.S. officials haven’t said publicly where the talks will be held, although US President Donald Trump called Oman’s Sultan Haitam Bin Tarique on Tuesday while the ruler was on a trip to the Netherlands.
Negotiations come in the focus of tension between the United States and Iran due to the latter nuclear development.
Trump has repeatedly threatened to relieve air attacks targeting Iranian nuclear program if the deal was not achieved. Iranian officials have increasingly warned that they can continue nuclear weapons with their uranium stocks enriched at weapon level.
‘As a puzzle’
Grossi arrived in Tehran for meetings with Pezeshkian and others, who would probably be held on Thursday.
Shortly before his arrival, Grossi warned that Iran was “not far away” to possess a nuclear bomb.
“It’s like a puzzle. They have pieces, and one day they could eventually put them together,” Grossi said for the French list Le Monde in an interview published on Wednesday.
“There are still ways to leave before they get there. But they are not far away, that must be admitted,” he said.
Since the collapse of the nuclear offer in 2018. years with Trump’s unilateral retreat from the Agreement, Iran left all the boundaries on their program and enriches uranium for cleanliness of up to 60 percent – near 90 percent levels.
The surveillance cameras installed by the IAE are disrupted, while Iran is prohibited by some of the most paved inspectors in Vienna. Iranian officials have also threatened more and more so that they can continue the atomic weapons, something that Western countries and IAE have been concerned with years.
Each possible contract between Iran and the United States should probably rely on the expertise of IAEA for insuring Tehanjav respect. And despite the tensions between Iran and the Agency, his approach was not completely revoked.
‘Non-negotiable’
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi Wednesday warned us about the contradictory attitudes in conversations.
His remarks went after the comment from the American East Steve Witkoff, who initially returned to 3.67 percent of uranium enrichment – as in 2015. The Administration of the former president of the USA, Barack Obama. WITKOFF then followed by saying, “An agreement with Iran will only be completed if it is Trump’s job.”
“Iran must stop and remove your program for nuclear enrichment and weapons”, “Witkoff wrote on the social platform X.” It is imperative for the world we create difficult, and that will ask me President Trump. ”
In response, Araghchi issued a warning to the US.
“Enrichment is a really and accepted question and we are ready to build trust on possible problems,” Araghchi mentioned. But losing the right to enrich the “not negotiating at all,” he said.
