DUBAI: Iran’s English-language Press TV said on Wednesday Iran was offering to agree to enhanced inspections of its nuclear programme, if the US Congress ratifies the 2015 nuclear deal and Washington lifts all sanctions.
“Iran’s proposed amendment to the nuclear deal calls for early approval of an additional protocol by Iran’s parliament, nuclear deal approval by US Congress, lifting of all sanctions by Washington,” state-run Press TV said, citing what it described as informed sources.
