Former President Donald Trump asserted that Iran had agreed to permanent, extensive inspections of its nuclear program under new agreements, saying the move would pave the way for further talks. Iran’s foreign ministry spokesman Ismail Baghaei rejected the claim, stating no meeting with the International Atomic Energy Agency has taken place and there is no plan to allow inspections of nuclear facilities. Iran’s UN representative echoed the denial, and both sides also disputed issues over the release of frozen Iranian assets and the passage of ships through the Strait of Hormuz.
