Rafael Grossi, the head of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), has welcomed the US announcement about a ceasefire extension, Al Jazeera reports.
Speaking to reporters, Grossi described the effort to end the war as a “complex process” and emphasised that it is important to allow “continuity” for that process to play out.
“I think it’s very important that an opportunity for peace is given,” he said, according to AP.
Grossi also warned both sides that any peace deal must include the IAEA from the start to enforce oversight over Iran’s nuclear programme. Otherwise, he said, “you will have an illusion of an agreement”.
