Inspectors from the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) will visit Iran in the next two weeks, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmail Baghai was quoted as saying by Reuters, BTA reported.
He made the announcement just days after the agency's director said Tehran was ready to resume technical talks.
Bagahai added that a document would soon be presented that would define the future framework of cooperation between Iran and the IAEA, in accordance with a law recently passed by parliament that limits such cooperation.
According to the new law, any future inspections of Iranian nuclear sites by the IAEA would require approval from Iran's Supreme National Security Council. Meanwhile, the agency has been pushing for inspections to resume, especially after Israeli and US airstrikes last month aimed at disrupting Iran's nuclear program and preventing it from building nuclear weapons.
Iran strongly denies seeking nuclear weapons and says its nuclear program is entirely for peaceful purposes. However, the IAEA expressed serious concerns about the approximately 400 kilograms of highly enriched uranium that Iran has.
Bagaei reiterated that Iran would resume indirect talks with the United States if it was in its national interest, but specified that there are currently no plans for a sixth round of nuclear talks with Washington.
So far, Iran and the United States have held five rounds of indirect talks mediated by Oman, which were interrupted after the 12-day war between Iran and Israel.
A number of disagreements emerged during the talks, including the US insistence that Iran stop enriching uranium on its territory. In response, Bagai stated that as a party to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, Iran has the right to enrich uranium for peaceful purposes.
