Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif tweeted on Thursday that "an agreeable solution is possible" for the UN nuclear watchdog's request for access to two nuclear sites in the country.
France, Britain and Germany, all parties to Iran's nuclear deal with major powers, have submitted a draft resolution to the International Atomic Energy Agency calling on Iran to stop denying the agency access to two old sites and to cooperate fully with it, diplomats taking part in an IAEA virtual meeting said.

"BoG should not allow JCPOA enemies to jeopardize Iran's supreme interests. E3 should not be an accessory, after failing own JCPOA duties," Zarif tweeted. "We've nothing to hide. More inspections in Iran over last 5 yrs than in IAEA history. An agreeable solution is possible, but Res will ruin it."

The Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, or JCPOA, is the official name of Iran's multilateral nuclear deal.
If the IAEA resolution is passed, it would raise pressure on Iran to let inspectors into the two sites where the IAEA suspects activities potentially related to developing nuclear weapons were carried out in the early 2000s, long before the deal.
