🇮🇷 | Iran rejects zero enrichment demands:

Foreign Minister Syed Abbas Araghchi said the central obstacle in past negotiations was the other side’s demand for zero uranium enrichment, a condition Iran has never accepted. He stated that uranium enrichment is an indigenous technology, achieved through domestic scientific capability and the sacrifice of Iranian scientists, and described it as a scientific achievement and a matter of national pride. Dr. Araghchi emphasized that Iran’s right to peaceful nuclear energy, including enrichment, is non-negotiable, and made clear that any agreement depends on explicit recognition of this principle.

⚡️🇮🇷🇺🇸 Iranian Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi said a key difference between the current talks with the US and negotiations that led to the JCPOA is the active regional dimension, stressing Iran is holding continuous consultations with countries in the region and respects their good faith and sincere efforts.

He said regional countries played an essential role in encouraging both sides to negotiate and in preventing escalatory actions, noting that seven regional heads of state spoke with President Masoud Pezeshkian and urged Iran to respond positively to the US request for talks.

Araghchi said a regional approach and securing the confidence of neighbouring countries could help strengthen trust in any potential agreement.

🇷🇺 | Assassination attempt on senior Russian defense official:

Lieutenant General Vladimir Alexeyev, a senior Russian Defense Ministry official, survived an assassination attempt allegedly orchestrated by Ukrainian intelligence and carried out by Lyubomir Korba, a Ukrainian national born in Ternopil Oblast who previously held Russian citizenship. Russian authorities stated that Korba conducted months of reconnaissance, coordinated with accomplices, and received instructions to target Alexeyev toward the end of 2025, before fleeing to the United Arab Emirates, where he was detained and extradited in cooperation with Russia. The FSB reported that Viktor Vasin was arrested in Moscow for assisting in the plot, while Zinaida Serebryakova escaped to Ukraine, describing the operation as part of a broader Ukrainian campaign targeting Russian officials beyond the battlefield.
