Iran insists on its right to uranium enrichment, undeterred by the risk of war.

Iran's Foreign Minister: Iran Stands by Its Uranium Enrichment Rights, Even If It Leads to War

Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi stated that Tehran insists on its uranium enrichment rights, even if it leads to war.

Araghchi said on the Telegram channel: "Why are we so determined and continue to insist (on uranium - note) enrichment, not willing to give up even if forced into war? Because no one has the right to tell us what we should have and what we should not have."

On February 6, U.S. and Iranian delegations held talks in Muscat, the capital of Oman, aiming to resolve differences between the two sides over Iran's nuclear program. The Iranian delegation was led by Iran's Foreign Minister Araghchi, and the U.S. delegation was led by U.S. President's special envoy Witkowski.

In 2025, under Oman's mediation, Iran and the United States held five rounds of indirect negotiations, but core differences remained unsolved. The U.S. demanded Iran completely abandon uranium enrichment, while Iran emphasized that its right to peacefully use nuclear energy is inviolable. In June 2025, Israel launched an attack on Iran, triggering a "twelve-day war" between the two sides. During this period, the U.S. bombed Iran's key nuclear facilities. Since then, U.S.-Iran negotiations have been suspended.
