Tehran: Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said Sunday that Tehran is reviewing the outcome of its talks with the US, underscoring that Iran rejects Washington's demand for zero uranium enrichment.
According to Kuwait News Agency, Araghchi spoke at a press conference in Tehran during an event focused on foreign policy and diplomatic history. He highlighted that both sides generally favor continuing negotiations, but a final decision will be made in the two capitals. During last Friday's talks, Iran emphasized that uranium enrichment must continue, describing it as a scientific achievement.
Araghchi noted that there was no direct meeting with US Middle East Envoy Steve Witkoff, aside from a brief handshake, which he described as routine. He mentioned that regional countries helped encourage the resumption of talks and that their involvement could support any deal, though not guarantee it.
He also emphasized Iran's readiness to address any questions or ambiguity about the aims of its nuclear program, stressing that diplomacy is the only way to provide reassurance. Araghchi held indirect talks in Muscat, Oman, last Friday with Witkoff and Jared Kushner, US President Donald Trump's son-in-law.
