00:00The duration of any moratorium on uranium enrichment by Iran is likely to be a political decision.
00:07The head of the International Atomic Energy Agency, Rafael Grossi, says that Iran could agree to a compromise as a
00:14confidence-building measure.
00:16He also stressed that any deal would require the presence of IAEA inspectors to verify compliance.
00:22Iran has a very ambitious, wide nuclear program, so all of that will require the presence of IAEA inspectors.
00:36Otherwise, you will not have an agreement. You will have an illusion of an agreement.
00:41So I am certain that we will be required and asked when the parties come to an agreement, hopefully.
00:52To provide the indispensable safeguard verification component of the agreement.
01:04His comments follows talks over the weekend between U.S. and Iranian officials aimed at easing tensions over Tehran's nuclear
01:12program.
01:13Those negotiations ended without agreement.
01:15Key differences remain, including how long Iran would suspend uranium enrichment, which Western countries say could be used to develop
01:24nuclear weapons.
01:25Iran has also called for the removal of international sanctions as part of any deal.
01:31So there's a prayer.
