US EditionUS, Iran spar over nuclear talks at UN
The U.S. insists on zero uranium enrichment as a precondition for talks while Iran rejects this and accuses the U.S. of unfair demands, amid reinstated sanctions.
- On Dec 23, the United States and Iran traded barbs at the United Nations Security Council during a briefing requested by Britain, France, the United States, Denmark, Greece, Slovenia and South Korea.
- The U.N. snapback in late September reinstated an arms embargo and other sanctions on Iran after European powers triggered the process, based on the 2015 nuclear deal enshrined in a Security Council resolution.
- U.S. deputy envoy Morgan Ortagus told the council the United States is ready for direct talks if Iran engages, while Amir Saeid Iravani rejected this, saying Iran "will not bow down to any pressure and intimidation."
- Procedural disputes from Moscow and Beijing followed the snapback-triggered council action, as Russia and China argued all resolution provisions expired on October 18 and objected to the meeting.
- Stumbling blocks have centered on uranium enrichment on Iranian soil, with five rounds of nuclear talks held before a 12-day war in June involving U.S. strikes on Iranian nuclear sites.
