Trump Asserts Nuclear Inspections Despite Iran's Denial

As Iran denied the U.S. announcement that it had accepted International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) nuclear inspections, U.S. President Donald Trump asserted the resumption of inspections as a fait accompli.

On the 23rd (local time), President Trump told reporters at Reading Airport in Pennsylvania that the IAEA inspection team would be deployed to Iran's nuclear facilities at an appropriate time.


Regarding Iran's statement that it has no plans for IAEA inspections, he said, "They are wrong," and added, "If they are right, I will cancel the meeting immediately."



U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance stated at a press conference the previous day that "Iran has agreed to invite the IAEA inspection team back to their country," and announced that the inspection team's activities are scheduled to begin later this week. However, Iran maintains a position contrary to the United States, stating that it has not accepted any new obligations regarding its nuclear program.
