Framing Analysis
Rafael Grossi, Director General of the IAEA, stated during a June 24, 2026 press conference in Japan that inspections of Iranian nuclear sites will take place and that modalities will be addressed soon. The statements follow a reported 14-point US-Iran memorandum of understanding signed the prior week that outlines broad principles for ending hostilities and initiating 60 days of talks on Iran's nuclear program. Inspections have been suspended since February 28 after prior US and Israeli strikes on Iranian facilities.
