No nation that possesses nuclear arsenals or those aspiring to nuclear technology for peaceful purposes has been subjected to the kinds of rigorous inspection and verification regimes — some bordering on humiliation and hijacking the country’s sovereignty — than Iran.

Iranian oil tanker Clavel crossing the Gibraltar stretch heading for Venezuela, May 20, 2020
