UN inspectorate chief calls Tehran's move a concrete step in the right direction', amid threat of restored sanctions

Iran has offered to keep its stock of uranium enriched up to 60% - below the purity levels required to make a nuclear bomb - the head of the UN nuclear inspectorate, Rafael Grossi, has confirmed amid the threat of restored European sanctions over Tehran's nuclear activities.

I think this is ... a concrete step in the right direction. We have a fact which has been verified by us. It is the first time Iran has agreed to take a different path," Grossi said in Vienna on Tuesday.
