Mohsen Naziri Asl, Iran’s representative to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), said Wednesday that his country was willing to cooperate over its atomic program, even as western powers slammed a “dangerous nuclear escalation”.
In a weekend trip, IAEA head Rafael Grossi received Iranian “assurances” on its intentions following the discovery of uranium particles enriched to near weapons-grade level.
