Iran would by no means relinquish its inalienable right to enrich uranium, Spokesperson for the Iranian Foreign Ministry Esmaeil Baqaei said.<\/span><\/h3>\n
\n

Speaking to reports at a weekly press conference on Wednesday, Baqaei emphasized that Iran will not compromise on its enrichment rights, asserting that its entitlement to nuclear energy is firmly rooted in international law and the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT).<\/p>\n

Dismissing the unfounded Western media speculations about Iran\u2019s enrichment program, he emphasized\u00a0that Iran’s legitimate rights, as recognized under international law, are non-negotiable.<\/p>\n

The spokesman stressed that Iran’s right to utilize nuclear energy is part of the rights granted by its membership in the NPT. Regarding discussions about the level and type of enrichment, he reiterated that while those discussions are open for negotiation, Iran must be able to continue enrichment based on its needs.<\/p>\n

Refuting media stories on alleged enrichment claims during the recent Iran-US negotiations in Pakistan, he noted that any agreement must first establish a comprehensive framework. Until the overall terms are agreed upon, discussions on the specifics, especially regarding critical issues like war and peace involving both Iran and the United States, are premature, he explained.<\/p>\n

Asked about Russia\u2019s proposal to transfer Iran\u2019s enriched uranium to Moscow, Baqaei mentioned that in any nuclear agreement, there are multiple options available. He said that in the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), specific methods were tested, but the parties have not yet reached that stage again.<\/p>\n

Baqaei added that throughout the diplomatic process, the US has continuously shown bad faith, leading to transgressions.<\/p>\n

He indicated a cautious outlook on how the ongoing discussions will proceed and what decisions will be made.<\/p>\n

Regarding reports about a visit by a Pakistani delegation to Iran, Pakistan\u2019s peace efforts, and details of the recent talks in Islamabad, Baqaei said\u00a0an individual with logic would not resort to sulking.<\/p>\n

He noted that exchanges of messages are ongoing, stating that multiple messages have been shared through Pakistan since Sunday. He said Iran will probably host a Pakistani delegation today to continue discussions from Islamabad, where detailed viewpoints from both sides will be discussed.<\/p>\n

Commenting on the possibility of extending the ceasefire and ongoing negotiations, Baqaei highlighted the complexities of engaging with a party known for changing its positions. He refrained from going into details, citing the interconnectedness of the discussions and the need to assess how they unfold.<\/p>\n

Dismissing all speculations about the extension of the ceasefire, Baqaei said that talks are continuing through Pakistani intermediaries. He emphasized that the seriousness of the US must be evaluated, stressing that it is Washington that needs to demonstrate its commitment.<\/p>\n
