UNITED NATIONS – Iran is not willing to reconsider a decision to deny access to top UN inspectors to its nuclear sites, the head of the United Nations nuclear watchdog tells AFP.
“They are not going to restore the inspectors to the list,” Rafael Grossi tells AFP, adding that the decision “is a blow and we don’t think it is constructive.”
