Iran: Regime rules out enrichment break as bait for US nuclear deal

Source: Al Jazeera [Qatari state media]

“Iran will not suspend its enrichment of uranium to secure a deal on its nuclear programme with the United States, officials say. Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokesman Esmail Baghaei reiterated Tehran’s tough public stance on Monday, branding reports that Iran could offer to freeze enrichment for three years as talks with the US proceed as ‘totally false.’ The denial came three days after negotiators for Tehran and Washington met for a fifth round of Oman-mediated talks in Rome. The US has said it cannot accept any Iranian enrichment. Iran has rejected any such ‘red line.'” (05/26/25)
