Iran’s supreme leader rejects US stance on uranium enrichment

  • On Tuesday, 2025, Iran’s top religious authority firmly dismissed U.S. demands to stop uranium enrichment during a speech in Tehran.
  • The rejection follows heightened tensions after the U.S. under President Trump withdrew from the 2015 nuclear deal and increased troop presence in the region.
  • Iran stated it will continue enrichment regardless of negotiations, while U.S. officials, including Special Envoy Steve Witkoff, insist on zero enrichment as a precondition for a deal.
  • Khamenei called U.S. statements 'nonsense' and said, "No one is waiting for others' permission," reflecting the ongoing indirect talks without a set date and conflicting U.S. signals.
  • These developments deepen distrust and complicate diplomacy, as Iran reviews proposals amid persistent U.S. contradictions, increasing risks of confrontation over nuclear issues.
