“Just as Iranian land is important and sacred to us, enriched uranium is also important and sacred to us,” Baghai said, adding that transferring nuclear material to the US “was never considered an option.”
In addition, the Iranian Foreign Ministry categorically rejected reports of a possible final cessation of uranium enrichment. According to Bagai, such rumors are only part of a targeted media campaign by the Trump administration, which aims to put pressure on the negotiators and influence the course of the negotiations.
