The opportunity to resolve Iran’s nuclear program through diplomacy remains, but it is "limited," Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said on Saturday. His remarks follow the visit of Rafael Grossi, head of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), to Iran.

The opportunity to resolve Iran’s nuclear program through diplomacy remains, but it is "limited," Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said on Saturday. His remarks follow the visit of Rafael Grossi, head of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), to Iran.

“There is still a chance for diplomacy, even if it is not very big. It is a limited chance,” Araghchi stated on state television, emphasizing the fragile state of negotiations. His comments come as Iran seeks to address international concerns regarding its nuclear activities.

Grossi visited two major nuclear sites in Iran on Friday as part of efforts to dispel "doubts and ambiguities" surrounding Tehran’s nuclear program. 

Iranian President Massoud Pezeshkian has expressed a willingness to cooperate with the IAEA, which could pave the way for greater transparency.
