Chapter 1: What recent developments have occurred regarding Iran's nuclear activities?
Live from NPR News, I'm Lakshmi Singh. The head of the U.N. 's Nuclear Watchdog Agency says inspectors have been on the ground in Iran, but they did not go back to the places that were attacked. Instead, they visited small labs and other facilities. Here's NPR's Aya Batrawi.
Rafael Grossi of the International Atomic Energy Agency says there's very limited to no activity in Iran now in uranium mining and enrichment. Grossi was directly involved in nuclear talks between Iran and the US in February, just before the US and Israel struck Iran.
Asked by NPR if Iran had agreed then to zero stockpiling of its highly enriched uranium, Grossi said it's hard to say because talks were truncated by war.
There were a number of alternatives that were being discussed. at that time. One is what you mentioned, but it was not the only one.
Grossi says other options included Iran halting or limiting enrichment. Now he says it's yet to be seen what can be agreed on. Aya Batraoui, NPR News, Abu Dhabi.
