Despite <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >reopening interaction channels<\/a>, Iran has made it clear that the visit will not include inspections of its nuclear sites until a cooperative framework is agreed upon. The suspension and refusal to allow inspections followed Iran&#8217;s removal of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/3-teens-charged-in-deadly-2020-house-fire-in-denver\/\" title=\"3 teens charged in deadly 2020 house fire in Denver\">surveillance cameras<\/a> from its nuclear facilities and the barring of the IAEA chief from those sites. The visit comes after Iran and Israel reached a U.S.-brokered ceasefire following a 12-day conflict, with Iran expressing willingness for broader peace talks, provided assurances that the U.S. will not conduct military attacks during negotiations. Meanwhile, U.S.President Donald Trump has shown reluctance to resume negotiations with Iran, criticizing the previous Iran nuclear deal under former President Obama.  <\/p>\n<div id=\"ld-4686-3758\"><\/div>\n<p><script>(function(w,d,s,i){w.ldAdInit=w.ldAdInit||[];w.ldAdInit.push({slot:14832835450050406,size:[0, 0],id:\"ld-4686-3758\"});if(!d.getElementById(i)){var j=d.createElement(s),p=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];j.async=true;j.src=\"https:\/\/cdn2.decide.dev\/_js\/ajs.js\";j.id=i;p.parentNode.insertBefore(j,p);}})(window,document,\"script\",\"ld-ajs\");<\/script><\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">UN <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/magnitude-6-1-earthquake-hits-turkeys-balikesir-province-killing-one-and-collapsing-buildings-washington-examiner\/\" title=\"Magnitude 6.1 earthquake hits Turkey\u2019s Balikesir province, killing one and collapsing buildings - Washington Examiner\">nuclear watchdog deputy<\/a> to visit Iran for first time since US strikes<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_2200115\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>The deputy head of the <a href=\"http:\/\/washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/iaea\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">International Atomic Energy Agency<\/a> is headed to <a href=\"http:\/\/washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/iran\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Iran<\/a> on Monday, the first visit by an official from the top nuclear watchdog since the U.S.&rsquo;s bombing of three nuclear sites there in June.<\/p>\n<p>The aim of the IAEA&rsquo;s visit is to &ldquo;determine a framework for cooperation&rdquo;
