It comes after months of suspension following Iran’s 12-day war with Israel in June, which included Israeli and American attacks on the country’s nuclear infrastructure, and subsequent parliamentary legislation halting collaboration.

Tehran’s top diplomat said the framework was “fully consistent” with the new law, which stipulates that nuclear inspectors would require authorization from the country’s top security body in order to conduct their work.

Jerusalem and Western governments accuse the Islamic Republic of seeking to acquire nuclear weapons, rejecting claims by the Iranian regime that its atomic program is for peaceful purposes. The United Kingdom, France and Germany (known as the E3) last month threatened to reimpose “snapback sanctions” on Iran over its nuclear activities, while leaving the door open for a diplomatic solution. Abdelatty said he hopes the deal could “enable an understanding” with the European powers, according to France24. Abbas AraghchiIAEAIran
