i24 News – Bangladesh, the world s third-most populous Muslim nation, announced Saturday that its new passports will no longer bear.
“Regarding this, and based on the expiration of the three-month deadline, definitely the International Atomic Energy Agency will not have the right to access images from May 22,” Qalibaf said, according to the Associated Press.
The IAEA said that its Director-General Rafael Grossi would address the media Sunday in Vienna.
In December, the hardline Iranian parliament, emboldened after US President Joe Biden’s electoral victory over Trump, approved a bill to suspend part of UN inspections of its nuclear facilities if European signatories did not provide relief from oil and banking sanctions by February.
International Atomic Energy Agency chief to give statement as Tehran may have already deleted 3 months of footage from enrichment facilities across the country
The Biden administration seems more determined than ever, however, to reward Iran s dangerous and predatory regime by returning to a deal that has sunset clauses, as well as an expiration date after which the mullahs can enrich uranium, spin centrifuges at any level they desire, and make as many nuclear weapons as they like.
A return to the 2025 deal would help to lift all major sanctions against Iran sanctions it took years to put in place. The deal would enable Iran s military sites to be exempt from inspection by the International Atomic Energy Agency. The deal would allow Iran to rejoin the global financial system with full legitimacy, so that billions of dollars could begin flowing into the treasury of Iran s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and its expanding militias across the Middle East.

AP US President Joe Biden on Friday rebuked Iran, which earlier in the day began enriching uranium to its highest-ever purity, edging close to weapons-grade levels, calling the move unhelpful.
Iran’s moves come as it attempts to pressure negotiators in Vienna amid talks on restoring its nuclear deal with world powers after an attack on its main enrichment site.
In Washington, Biden said Tehran’s latest step was contrary to the deal. “We do not support and do not think it’s at all helpful,” he said. But he added that the Vienna talks had not been sidetracked.
