The head of the U.N.’s nuclear agency, Rafael Mariano Grossi, has signaled that Iranian nuclear enrichment sites will be visited by his inspectors, a key component in the interim deal between the United States and Iran to reach an end to the war.
Inspections to Take Place
Grossi’s comments came as U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio arrived in the Persian Gulf for a three-nation tour. The IAEA has been blocked by Tehran from visiting enrichment sites where the Islamic Republic is believed to store enough highly enriched uranium to potentially build as many as 10 nuclear weapons, should it choose to rush for the bomb.
The US and Iran agreed to a deal last week that calls for Tehran to dilute its stockpile of enriched uranium and waives U.S.-backed sanctions on Iranian oil, while giving each side 60 days to hammer out broader agreements.
