Vance Says Nuclear Inspectors Will Return to Iran Under Deal Terms

Vice President JD Vance said nuclear inspectors will return to Iran under the terms of a U.S.-Iran agreement designed to halt the ongoing war.

In an interview with NBC News, Vance affirmed that the accord includes provisions for inspectors to resume their work in the country. He did not elaborate on the timeline for the inspectors' return or the specific conditions attached to their access.

Vance also announced that the two nations will release the text of their memorandum of understanding on Friday. Until that point, details of the agreement remain undisclosed to the public.

The vice president's comments provide the first high-level confirmation from the Trump administration of what inspection access looks like in the emerging deal framework. The agreement represents a significant shift in U.S.-Iran relations after months of military escalation.

Neither Vance nor NBC News reported Iranian government statements on the arrangement in the coverage available.
