A new report says a recent agreement between Iran and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) to extend by one month an understanding to keep inspections alive is only meant to give the technical negotiations between the two sides a chance to reach a breakthrough.

Iran says the temporary bilateral technical understanding it has reached with the UN nuclear watchdog, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), shows the “goodwill” on the part of the Islamic Republic and gives diplomacy a chance to resolve the nuclear issue.

Iran ceases the voluntary implementation of the Additional Protocol to the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) that allowed the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) to carry out short-notice inspections from the country’s nuclear facilities.

Iranian legislators have overwhelmingly ratified the outlines of a bill that authorizes the resumption of nuclear activities restricted under the 2015 nuclear deal.
