Iran’s president has said the country is willing to open up its nuclear sites for “any verification” to prove it is not seeking to build nuclear weapons, as negotiations continue to stave off US military action.
President Masoud Pezeshkian made the public pledge on Wednesday during a commemoration of the 47th anniversary of Iran’s Islamic Revolution, but it was unclear whether it amounted to a concrete change to the country’s current policy of allowing only partial inspections of its sites.
“We have announced time and again that we are not seeking nuclear weapons,” Pezeshkian said during the ceremony. “We are ready for any kind of verification.”
