IAEA chief is welcome to visit Iran at any time to discuss technical issues — top diplomat

Director General of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Rafael Grossi can visit Iran at any time to discuss technical issues, Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian told a news conference after talks with Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov on Wednesday, TASS reports. 

"Iran will be ready to receive Mr. Grossi at any time to discuss technical issues and will welcome the respective decision of the IAEA chief to make such a visit," he stressed.

The Iranian foreign minister condemned the absence of due reaction from the IAEA to a number of subversive actions at the Natanz nuclear site, as well as attempts from IAEA leadership to meddle in issues of political nature. "We are discontent with this," he stated. "But if Mr. Grossi intends to limit himself to the discussion of only technical issues, we are ready to organize this visit and ensure the IAEA chief’s meetings with the appropriate persons," the foreign minister stressed.
