Iran Will Make No Nuclear Concessions, Iranian Official Says
A senior Iranian official said Tehran will not give up uranium enrichment or ship out highly enriched uranium, even if Washington accepts the Hormuz plan.
- On Friday, Iran indicated no flexibility regarding its nuclear program, even if the United States accepts a proposal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. A senior Iranian official told Reuters the waterway would remain closed until "all of Iran's conditions are met" by Washington.
- Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi stated on Thursday that Iran would end hostilities within seven days if the United States lifts its blockade on Iranian ports, releases frozen funds, and waives oil sanctions.
- The International Atomic Energy Agency estimates Iran had 440.9 kg of uranium enriched to 60% in June 2025, a level Western states including the United States and Israel argue is closer to the 90% required for weapons.
- Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei has reportedly directed that HEU must not be sent abroad, while an anonymous official confirmed the waterway will remain closed until "all of Iran's conditions are met" by Washington.
- Seeking a resolution, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian told journalists on Thursday he hopes for a deal with Washington before the United States midterm elections on November 3, potentially ending hostilities across the Middle East.
