🇮🇷Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi:

There is a very reasonable plan on the table. If they reject it with no reason, this is their fault.

And I have to say that although we heard from President Trump that he is rejecting this deal, we are still waiting for an official response through the mediators.

🇮🇷🇺🇸⚛️Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi:

60% enrichment is not illegal. It is for peaceful purposes, and we have answered this question. We have removed any concern in our past negotiations.

If there is still such a question, why did they bomb us? Are they, you know, allowed to bomb anything that they think is illegal? There is no justification for that.

War is not a solution. That was a subject for negotiation, and we did it in the past. We have enriched uranium up to 60% for peaceful purposes, and it is within our commitment. We have not violated the NPT.

There are questions. We answered those questions in the past during the negotiations, and we can do it again. There is no need for military operation.

Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi:

It is false if somebody thinks that there are different sources of power inside Iran.

We in the Foreign Ministry are in close coordination with the government, with the IRGC, with the Supreme National Security Council, with the parliament.

We are all on one front, facing all challenges imposed on us by the U.S.
