Iranian source denies US VP claim on IAEA inspectors return

Fars News Agency, citing an informed source close to the Iranian negotiating team, reported that the claim made by US Vice President JD Vance regarding the return of IAEA inspectors to Iran is false. The source stated, "The US Vice President's claim about the return of IAEA inspectors to the country is untrue and false." The source further clarified that during the recent talks held in Switzerland, there was no discussion about the presence of inspectors in Iran. The report by Fars News Agency added that the Iranian negotiating team has not agreed to any such arrangement. The denial comes amid ongoing tensions between Iran and the US over the nuclear issue, with the IAEA previously reporting restrictions on access to some Iranian nuclear sites. The Swiss talks were part of broader efforts to address outstanding issues between the two countries. According to the informed source, any claims suggesting progress on the return of inspectors are baseless. The source emphasized that Iran's position on the nuclear program remains unchanged, and any future agreements must respect Iran's rights and interests.
