Iran Rejects IAEA Inspections of Damaged Nuclear Sites

Baghaei emphasized that no established protocol exists to facilitate such inspections at this time. He maintained that the country remains committed to its existing obligations under the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and its current safeguards agreement with the global watchdog. By framing the refusal as a matter of standard procedure, the ministry signaled that the status quo regarding monitoring of these specific installations will persist despite recent reports of damage.
