It seems things are not going well in those talks and 'other solutions' need to be looked at. Is this instead of those inspections Obama personally assured the nation would be a part of this?

Sounds like inspections are still as much a no go and non-starter as they've ever been. That isn't helpful for the deal, I'd imagine ...except that both the White House and now, seemingly Congress are hell bent to do a deal of SOME kind.
So...what solutions replace inspections? Promises and assurances?

Lets see...who blinks first? The Ayatollah and leader of the Shiite sect of the Islamic world? ...or John Kerry and Barack Obama?
Do we really want to see how this story ends?

International monitors will have “unprecedented access” to Iran’s nuclear facilities, Obama said. In exchange for Iran’s cooperation and adherence to a final agreement, the international community will lift some sanctions, the president added.
“If Iran cheats, the world will know it,” said Obama, whose remarks were broadcast live on Iranian state TV. “If we see something suspicious, we will inspect it.”

Iran will discuss "other solutions" to Western demands that it allow U.N. inspectors access to its military sites and to interview its nuclear scientists, Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif was quoted on Sunday as saying.
Sounds like inspections are still as much a no go and non-starter as they've ever been. That isn't helpful for the deal, I'd imagine ...except that both the White House and now, seemingly Congress are hell bent to do a deal of SOME kind.
"We have decided to discuss other solutions to resolve this issue," Zarif was quoted as saying by the Mehr news agency, after holding six hours of meetings on Saturday with his U.S. counterpart John Kerry.
So...what solutions replace inspections? Promises and assurances?
The United States and France have threatened to block any deal that does not allow access but Iran's Supreme Leader has explicitly ruled out any inspections or interviews, creating an obstacle ahead of the June 30 deadline to reach an agreement.
