TEHRAN: Iran has made it clear Monday (26th May, 2025) following the 5th round of nuclear talks, that it would not suspend uranium enrichment in order to secure a nuclear deal with USA.
President Masoud Pezeshkian has asserted that Iran will be able to survive even if nuclear talks with US failed: “It’s not like we will die of hunger if they refuse to negotiate with us or impose sanctions. We will find a way to survive.”
Iran’s nuclear chief Mohammad Eslami, while talking to journalists here, said if an agreement was signed, Iran would consider accepting American inspectors through IAEA: “Countries that were hostile to us and behaved unprincipledly over the years — we have always tried not to accept inspectors from those countries.”
Speaking to journalists at a Presser held here, Irani spokesman said that Tehran would not freeze enrichment for three years, as demanded by the USA, in order to sign a deal with Trump Administration. USA believes that Iran would produce nuclear weapons that would ultimately be used against Israel. The date of the 6th round of talks has not yet been announced.
Omani Foreign Minister Badr Albusaidi took to the X to state: “The fifth round of Iran US talks have concluded today in Rome with some but not conclusive progress. We hope to clarify the remaining issues in the coming days, to allow us to proceed towards the common goal of reaching a sustainable and honourable agreement. From the eternal city of Rome I wish to thank our Italian friends for hosting us again for the Iran US talks today and for their strong support for peace and security.”
It may be recalled that US President wants to stop Iran from producing atom bombs. Whereas, Iran wants to get rid of the shackles that is economically proving to be devastating to this oil-rich country. It is pertinent to mention here that Iran has been asserting that its nuclear program is civilian. Washington is of the view that Iran’s uranium enrichment program could enable it to develop nuclear bombs commencing a regional arms race threatening Tel Aviv.
