Iran says IAEA has inspected Bushehr nuclear plant and cooperation continues

Iran says the International Atomic Energy Agency has recently inspected the Bushehr nuclear power plant, and that this shows "regulated cooperation" with the agency continues.

Esmail Baghaei, Iran's Foreign Ministry spokesman, made the claim at his press briefing on 9 November, as reported by the Times of Israel. He did not give a date for the inspection. The claim has not been independently checked.

"Professional communication between Iran's mission in Vienna and the agency is ongoing"

Mr Baghaei also criticised the IAEA. He said it had "failed to fulfill their legal obligations" by overlooking the wrongdoing in the aggression against Iran's facilities.

Inspector access is part of the diplomacy under way. Axios and Al Jazeera report that the two-day plan put forward by Qatar involves Iran inviting IAEA inspectors to its bombed nuclear sites.
