🔻 Baghaei: the export of enriched materials from Iran is not on the agenda

The spokesperson of Iran’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs says that during diplomatic interactions to resolve the dispute between Tehran and Washington, “the export of enriched materials from Iran is not on the agenda.”

Ismail Baghaei, in an interview with Al Mayadeen, also criticized that U.S. officials raise “contradictory demands.” He said this issue stems from “confusion” in the United States about the institutions and officials that have the authority to negotiate with Iran.

Mr. Baghaei also, regarding cooperation between Iran and the International Atomic Energy Agency, said that inspectors of the UN agency, within the framework of routine inspections, “about 10 days ago” visited the Bushehr nuclear power plant and some other Iranian power plants.

He, however, emphasized that the Agency still does not have the ability to inspect sites that were damaged during the war, because “in the current situation, there is no specific mechanism or instruction” for doing so.
