It is ‘simple work’ for Iran to verify its nuclear program.

Iran’s President Masoud Pezeshkian has said that it would be easy to verify that Iran is not developing nuclear weapons, state TV announced on Thursday, a day after US President Donald Trump said that he would like to have a verified nuclear peace agreement with Tehran, Reuters has reported

Iran is not seeking a nuclear weapon as the mass killing of innocent people is prohibited in the Islamic Republic’s doctrine, said Pezeshkian in a televised meeting with foreign ambassadors in Tehran. “Verifying [our nuclear programme] is an easy task, they have come and verified every time they wanted to do so and they can come and verify a hundred more times,” added the Iranian president.

Trump said on Wednesday that he would like to have a verified nuclear peace agreement with Iran. During his previous term in office in 2018, Trump pulled the United States out of Tehran’s 2015 nuclear pact with world powers — the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action — and reimposed sanctions that have crippled the country’s economy. The harsh measures prompted Tehran to violate the pact’s nuclear limitations.

Pezeshkian’s comments come a day after a senior Iranian official told Reuters that Iran is ready to give US diplomacy another chance to resolve disputes.
