Trump Says Iran Accepted UN Nuclear Inspections as He Sees No Rush for Access

Summary
Trump said Iran agreed to UN watchdog inspections of its nuclear sites, but told reporters Tuesday there is "no rush" to get inspectors on the ground.
He said he would cancel talks with Tehran immediately if Iran had not accepted inspections, framing access as a condition for keeping negotiations alive.
Republican criticism is also building: Trump said opponents including Sen. Ted Cruz "have to be educated" about the interim deal ending the war with Iran.
The dispute comes after Trump earlier claimed "100% inspections" and other concessions, which Iranian officials denied, leaving the scope and timing of any UN access unresolved.
