Iran war tensions escalate: UN inspections, economic crisis, and political infighting
A fragile peace is taking hold after the US-Israel war on Iran, but deep disagreements remain. The UN nuclear agency chief, Rafael Grossi, stated that IAEA inspectors will visit Iranian enrichment sites as part of the interim deal signed by the US and Iran. However, Iranian officials insist such inspections will only occur after a final agreement, reflecting a broader pattern of contradictory public statements. Meanwhile, the war has devastated Iran's economy, with estimated damages of €229 billion and inflation driving up basic food prices dramatically. The US has lifted some oil sanctions and may release $6 billion in frozen funds, but Iran disputes conditions on how the money can be spent.
