Iran’s Deputy Foreign Minister Kazem Gharibabadi says UN inspectors’ access to attacked nuclear sites and materials will “solely be examined and resolved within the framework of a final agreement” with the United States, Al Jazeera reports.

He said UN inspections are dependent on “the other party’s practical action in terminating all sanctions”.

In a post, Gharibabadi also said that during the Switzerland negotiations, no Iranian officials met with International Atomic Energy Agency chief Rafael Grossi “despite his request”.

Earlier, Grossi said inspections of Iranian nuclear sites are “going to happen”.

“Whether this happens today or tomorrow, or in one week or in 10 days, it’s important but not essential. This is going to happen.”
