Summary
Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei criticized the US proposal for a new nuclear agreement, insisting Iran will not halt uranium enrichment, which he views as essential to the nation’s nuclear program. Despite the US plan suggesting Iran rely on a regional consortium for enriched uranium, Khamenei emphasized that the country’s right to enrichment is non-negotiable. Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi indicated that the proposal contains ambiguities and reiterated that continuing enrichment on Iranian soil is a “red line.”
