The Iranian negotiation team has not agreed to permit nuclear watchdog inspectors to enter Iran, Tasnim news agency reported, contrary to the claims by U. S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, who wrote on X that the United States would waive sanctions on Iranian oil in exchange for the opening of the Strait of Hormuz and granting permission for International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) inspectors to enter Iran. “One of Iran’s most important assets today, which prevents some of the foolish actions of the United States, is the policy of ‘nuclear ambiguity’ and the fact that the location of stored enriched nuclear materials is unknown to the Americans,” Tasnim reported, adding that the United Sttes is “investing all their efforts to deal with this nuclear ambiguity and obtain the necessary intelligence in this field. ”“If the policy of nuclear ambiguity collapses as a result of the entry of IAEA inspectors into Iran, and the Americans complete their knowledge on the matter, this will serve only the enemy – an enemy that does not hesitate even to officially declare its ongoing efforts to remove nuclear materials from Iran, including through military action,” according to Tasnim, the semi-official news agency in Iran associated with the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. “This is likely why, to this moment, no Iranian official has confirmed this claim, and it is hoped that it will not be confirmed in the future either. ” The report said there is no mention of the IAEA inspectors in Iran in the memorandum of understanding, and that Iranian negotiators in Switzerland announced on Sunday that they had prevented the participation of the IAEA director-general in talks. “Any possible presence of inspectors must be conditional on a final agreement – an agreement whose chances of being reached, given past experience with the United States, appear slim,” according to Tasnim.
