Iran’s Araghchi Says Tehran Will Keep Uranium Enrichment

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said in an interview broadcast by Fox News on 21 July that Tehran will not abandon its uranium-enrichment programme. The remark underscores Iran’s insistence on maintaining what it views as a sovereign right under the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty. Araghchi’s reaffirmation of Iran’s position comes as international powers continue to weigh diplomatic options for curbing Iran’s nuclear activities. His statement signals that any future negotiations would have to accommodate Iran’s enrichment activities, a sticking point in previous rounds of talks.
