When asked about a prospective normalisation deal with Israel, <a href="https://www.thenationalnews.com/world/us-news/2023/09/20/prince-mohammed-bin-salman-says-riyadh-closer-to-establishing-israel-relations/" target="_blank">Prince Mohammed told Fox</a> that: “Every day we get closer.” President Raisi said Iran has no issue with the UN nuclear watchdog's inspection of its nuclear sites, days after <a href="https://www.thenationalnews.com/mena/iran/2023/09/16/iaea-condemns-iranian-decision-to-bar-some-inspectors/" target="_blank">Tehran barred multiple inspectors </a>assigned to the country. “We have no problem with the inspections but the problem is with some inspectors … those inspectors that are trustworthy can continue their work in Iran,” Mr Raisi said. Iran's move was a response to a call led by the US, UK, France and Germany at the International Atomic Energy Agency's Board of Governors earlier this month for Tehran to co-operate immediately with the agency on issues including explaining uranium traces found at undeclared sites. In his interview, Prince Mohammed warned that if Iran gets a nuclear weapon then Riyadh will get one too.
