US-Iran Nuclear Talks Reach Fifth Round as Enrichment Dispute Intensifies
- On Friday, Iranian and US negotiators met in Rome for the fifth round of nuclear talks aimed at resolving Iran's uranium enrichment dispute.
- The talks followed a hardening US stance that demands Iran fully dismantle its uranium enrichment program, which Tehran views as a red line in the negotiations.
- Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi reiterated Tehran's willingness to enhance inspections but refused to relinquish uranium enrichment rights under the Non-Proliferation Treaty.
- US envoy Steve Witkoff made clear that Washington would not permit any level of uranium enrichment, a stance Iran considers unacceptable and views as influenced by Israeli demands; Tehran has insisted that without the ability to continue enrichment, no agreement can be reached.
- The deadlock suggests limited progress ahead, with Tehran skeptical of US sincerity amid new sanctions and Washington insisting on total denuclearization for sanction relief.
