Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister: Will Never Hand Over Enriched Uranium to the United States

Odaily News According to Iranian media reports, Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Saeed Khatibzadeh stated on the 18th that Iran will never hand over its domestically enriched uranium to the United States. Khatibzadeh refuted previous statements made by U.S. President Trump regarding enriched uranium. He said that Iran is willing to communicate on issues of mutual concern but absolutely does not accept unrealistic preconditions, and "no enriched material will be shipped to the United States." Khatibzadeh added that due to the U.S. refusal to abandon its position of "maximum pressure" on key issues, Iran is currently not prepared to engage in a new round of face-to-face negotiations with the United States.
