Iran has given a strong message to America, saying that it will not give up the right to uranium enrichment despite pressure or threat of war. Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi clearly said on Sunday that even if war is imposed on Iran, it will not back down from its nuclear program.
Araghchi said that Iran has paid a heavy price for its peaceful nuclear program. He told why Iran puts so much emphasis on uranium enrichment. Araghchi said that no country can tell Iran what it should do. This is Iran's right. He made this statement two days after his meeting with US Special Envoy Steve Witkoff in Oman.
Araghchi warned that if America iran If Iran attacks, Iran will not attack American soil, but will target American military bases in the Middle East. He said that America has many military bases in this area and they will be Iran's target.
The Iranian Foreign Minister said that the solution to Iran's nuclear issue is possible only through dialogue. He told that the recent talks with America were indirect and only the nuclear issue was discussed. He said that America initially kept threatening military attacks, but later it was forced to negotiate.
Araghchi made it clear that stopping uranium enrichment cannot be a part of the talks in any way. Uranium will be enriched in Iran according to the needs of the country and it will not be sent out of the country. He also made it clear that Iran will not negotiate any kind of thing on its missile program neither now nor in the future. He said that talks can be successful only when they are free from threats and pressure.
Araghchi said that the date for the second round of talks with America has not been decided yet. Meanwhile, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian described the talks with America as a positive step. He wrote on social media platform He said that the Iran-US talks held with the help of friendly countries in the region are a step forward towards peace.
