Iran has agreed to inspections of its nuclear materials, US Vice President JD Vance told the media on Monday upon leaving the Iran negotiations in Switzerland.
“We have the Iranians allowing weapons inspectors, nuclear inspectors into their country for the first time in a long time,” he said, noting that they will ensure Iran will never have a nuclear weapon.
“We set up the mechanism to ensure not only the Straits of Hormuz are open but will stay open,” Vance added, stating that about 15 million barrels of oil exited the strait recently, bringing gas prices down.
“This is laying a foundation for what could be a truly transformed Middle East,” he continued.
Vance also said that a mechanism to ensure the ceasefire in the Middle East would last had been established, and that efforts were coordinated with Israel and Arab countries.
This is a developing story.
