Washington (HRNW)- US Vice President JD Vance has said that inspectors from the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) will travel to Iran to monitor the implementation of the initial agreement reached between Tehran and Washington.<\/p>\n
Speaking at a press conference, Vance said that the mediation efforts of Qatar and Pakistan played a positive and constructive role throughout the negotiation process.<\/p>\n
He stated that substantial progress had been achieved on several important issues during talks with Iran and that technical teams from both sides were continuing to work on various aspects of the agreement.<\/p>\n
According to the US Vice President, a framework for technical negotiations has now been established and discussions will continue in the coming weeks. He added that the groundwork for a successful long-term agreement with Iran has been laid.<\/p>\n
Addressing recent remarks by US President Donald Trump, Vance said that Trump\u2019s statements were a response to threats directed at Iranian media and emphasized that the United States seeks a ceasefire across the region.<\/p>\n
