The Associated Press, citing a report from the Washington Institute for Near East Policy (WITKAF), told U.S. lawmakers that Iran intends to invite inspectors from the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) to its nuclear facilities. The move is presented as an effort by Tehran to demonstrate transparency over its nuclear program.

The briefing to Congress comes amid ongoing diplomatic negotiations and heightened scrutiny of Iran’s nuclear activities by the United Nations and the United States.
