Iran says nuclear talks will fail if US pushes for zero enrichment

  • Iran and global powers are involved in Oman-facilitated nuclear negotiations aiming to reach an agreement by October that would stop Iran from developing nuclear weapons.
  • The talks follow the U.S. Withdrawal from the 2015 deal under President Trump, who reimposed sanctions and demanded Iran stop uranium enrichment, a stance Iran rejects.
  • Iran maintains its entitlement to produce enriched uranium for civilian uses, currently doing so at levels much higher than the threshold established by the 2015 agreement, yet still below the concentration required for nuclear weapons.
  • U.S. Special envoy Steve Witkoff emphasized a strict boundary on uranium enrichment, stating that the U.S. Will not permit Iran to maintain any level of enrichment capacity, a stance Tehran considers unrealistic and unacceptable.
  • If the U.S. Continues to demand an end to enrichment, Iran warns talks will fail, while it remains open to rebuilding trust if Europe engages with an independent approach.
