Iran has not agreed to inspections, giving up on enriching uranium: US
US President Donald Trump said on Friday that Iran had not agreed to inspections of its nuclear programme or to give up enriching uranium.
He told reporters aboard Air Force One that he believed Tehran’s nuclear programme had been set back permanently although Iran could restart it at a different location.
Trump said he would discuss Iran with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu when he visits the White House on Monday. “I would say it’s set back permanently,” Trump said as he travelled to New Jersey after an Independence Day celebration at the White House.
“I would think they’d have to start at a different location. And if they did start, it would be a problem.” Trump said he would not allow Tehran to resume its nuclear programme, adding that Iran did want to meet with him.
The UN nuclear watchdog said it had pulled its last remaining inspectors from Iran. Iran has accused the agency of effectively paving the way for the bombings by issuing a report on May 31 that led to a resolution declaring Iran in breach of its non-proliferation obligations.
