BAKU, Azerbaijan, February 17. Iran will permit
the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) to inspect its
nuclear facilities to demonstrate that its nuclear program is
peaceful, Alaeddin Boroujerdi, a member of the Iranian Parliament’s
National Security and Foreign Policy Committee, told reporters,
Trend
reports.
Boroujerdi noted that Iran’s Supreme National Security Council
has agreed to grant the IAEA access to the country’s nuclear sites.
He noted that Iran had previously refused inspection access, citing
the IAEA and its Director General's failure to condemn military
airstrikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities.
In June 2025, following Israeli and American air strikes on
Iranian nuclear facilities, the country minimized its relations
with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). In response,
the Iranian parliament passed a law on cooperation with the IAEA.
According to the law, any cooperation with the IAEA is possible
only with the consent of Iran's Supreme National Security
Council.
The second round of indirect talks between Iran and the United
States on Tehran’s nuclear program is currently underway in
Geneva.
On February 6, the two sides held negotiations in Muscat, Oman,
focusing on issues related to Iran’s nuclear activities.
