Responding to the lead US negotiator Steve Witkoff , who had said in an interview with American media earlier today that "We cannot allow even 1 percent of an enrichment capability," the top Iranian negotiator Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said that "These remarks are completely far from the reality of the negotiations."
"Enrichment in Iran will continue," he underscored.
"If the demands of the other side are unrealistic, it is natural that they will not be accepted," the minister also underlined.
According to Mehr, Araghchi further said that Iran is ready to provide assurances that it will never develop nuclear weapons.
The Iranian and US delegations have held four rounds of indirect talks on Tehran's nuclear program and the lifting of US sanctions in the Omani capital Muscat and Italy's Rome.
