Tehran has warned that Washington will bear full responsibility if nuclear negotiations collapse due to what Iranian officials describe as "unreasonable demands."
In response to provocative remarks by some American and Zionist officials suggesting the “Libya model” for Iran, the Islamic Republic has firmly rejected such rhetoric, reiterating that Iran will never halt its uranium enrichment under any circumstances. Emphasizing the indigenous and entirely peaceful nature of its nuclear program, Iranian officials insist that the only path to a viable agreement is through respectful and balanced negotiations, not pressure or threats.
Deputy Foreign Minister for Political Affairs Majid Takht-e-Ravanchi said regarding the contradictory positions of the United States in the negotions with Iran that the zigzag and contradictory positions of the U.S. are confusing the atmosphere, meaning that no one can be sure or declare that this issue has no effect.
Iran’s Foreign Minister, Sayed Abbas Araghchi, visited Riyadh for discussions with Saudi officials on bilateral relations and regional security. Taking place ahead of the Muscat negotiations and former President Trump’s upcoming visit to the region, the trip is seen as part of Tehran and Riyadh’s efforts to pursue balance and regional cooperation.
Between two rounds of indirect talks with the U.S., Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi traveled to Moscow to deliver a message from Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei to President Vladimir Putin and discuss key bilateral and regional issues. Emphasizing strategic cooperation with Russia and supported by China and Russia’s backing of Iran’s nuclear rights, Tehran is intensifying its diplomatic efforts to strengthen its position against Washington’s unilateral pressure.
