“Of course, this is a military site and Iran will not let any inspector go there,” he added.

​Najafi’s remarks came after IAEA Director General Yukiya Amano repeated his claims about construction work at Parchin military site which some world powers demand to inspect.

He added that “much work needs to be done” to finish the probe, but reiterated that the investigations will be complete by mid-December, as agreed in a roadmap between Iran and the IAEA.
