Hassan Rohani said the suspension of nuclear inspections is a "technical matter," and will be resolved in negotiations with the UN's nuclear watchdog.
Iran postponed a planned visit by IAEA inspectors, planned for 13 March, after the agency strongly criticized Iran for failing to disclose sensitive information about its nuclear program.
Yesterday, IAEA Director-General Muhammad el-Baradei said the best way for Iran to answer suspicions that it may be hiding a nuclear weapons program is to allow the return of UN inspectors as early as possible.
El-Baradei made the comment as he arrived in Washington, where he is expected to meet with President George W. Bush this week.
