The Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs Esmail Baghaei confirmed on Wednesday that the country’s nuclear facilities were “badly damaged” in American strikes at the weekend.
In Al Jazera, Baghaei spoke to go into detail, admitted the strikes on Sunday by American B-2 bombers with bunker bombs.
“Our nuclear installations were badly damaged, which is certain,” he said.
Israeli military spokesman Brig. General Effie Defrin said on Wednesday that his country’s assessment was also that the nuclear institutions of Iran “” significantly damaged “and his nuclear program was” backed up “after years.
US President Donald Trump told reporters at a NATO summit in the Netherlands that it was “very good”.
“You won’t have a bomb and you won’t enrich,” said Trump about Iran.
Trump compared the strikes with the American atomic bombs at another point at the end of World War II in 1945.
“I don’t want to use an example for Hiroshima, I don’t want to use an example for Nagasaki, but that was essentially the same. That ended this war. This ended the war,” said Trump.
The president took the roof in reports that arose on Tuesday, which pointed out that a report created by the US Defense Intelligence Agency pointed out that the Iran nuclear program may have been reset in months.
Anger in Tehran at UN Nuclear Agency
In the meantime, the Iranian parliament approved a legislative template on Wednesday to issue cooperation with the UN Nuclear Watchdog, reported state -related outlet Nournews.
The move that requires the final approval of the Supreme National Security Council of Iran to enforce, said Nournews.
Parliament’s spokesman, Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf, was quoted by state media and also said that Iran would accelerate his civil nuclear program.
Baghaei seemed to indicate that Iran was not excluded Iaea Inspectors forever and found that the invoice in front of the parliament only speaks of the suspension of work with the agency and is not over. He also insisted that Iran has the right to pursue a nuclear energy program.

In Vienna, the general director of Iaeo, Rafael Mariano Grossi said that he had already written to Iran to discuss the recording inspections of her facilities.
Among other things, Iran claims to have moved its highly enriched uranium in front of the American strikes, and Grossi said that his inspectors had to re -evaluate the country’s inventory.
“We have to return,” he said. “We have to get involved.”
Grossi said he couldn’t speculate how bad the damage was, but that the nuclear skills of Iran were known.
“The technical knowledge is there and the industrial capacity is there,” he said. “Nobody can deny that, so we have to work with them.”
At the beginning of this week, the National Security Committee of the Iranian Parliament approved the general outline of the law and the spokesman for the committee, Ebrahim Rezaei, said that the law would expose the installation of surveillance cameras, inspection and submission of reports to the IAEA.
After the Israeli attacks on its nuclear locations and the American bombing of underground Iranian nuclear systems at the weekend, the Iranian government is also on demands to limit the country’s obligations for the nuclear distribution regime.
In an interview with Al-Araby al-Jade on Tuesday, Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said: “I think that our view will observe changes to our nuclear program and the non-distribution regime, but it is not possible to say in which direction.”
