Washington says that Iran’s uranium enrichment program may develop atomic bombs, while Tehran has constantly denied claims, saying that its atomic program is for civil purposes.
Next to the talks, Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Arkchi said that no promotion would mean “We have no deal.”
“The detection of the route for a deal is not rocket science: zero nuclear weapons = we have a deal. Zero promotion = we don’t have a deal. The time to decide …”
Speaking to the National Iranian television on the night of 22 May, Arakchi stressed that Iran would not back down from its nuclear rights. He emphasized that his country has the right to develop its peaceful nuclear technology.
He said, “We will not back down from our rights. Our nuclear program-encluding is going on-mesting. However, we are ready to adopt confidence-making and transparency measures and accept comprehensive monitoring, as we are confident in the peaceful nature of our program,” he said as the state media IRNA.
In its report on May 20, CNN quoted the US authorities that the Israeli regime was preparing the Iranian nuclear facilities.
According to the state’s state media, Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Arakachi warned that any Israeli adventure that targets Iran’s nuclear sites will be completed with a decisive response, as in the past.

Araki also emphasized that Israel’s nuclear program presents a serious threat to global security, urging the international community to put pressure on the Israeli regime to eliminate its nuclear arsenal and commit to disarmament agreements.
Meanwhile, US President Donald Trump on Thursday discussed his plans with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for the nuclear deal with Iran before today’s conversation between the US and the Iranian officials.
White House press secretary Karolin Lewit said in a briefing that the leaders “talked about a possible deal with Iran, which the President believes is running in the right direction.” The Secretary of the White House said that Trump on Wednesday expressed his condolences to Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu about the murder of two Israeli diplomats at Washington DC.
Trump’s special messenger for the Middle East Steve Witchoff and the Director of Policy Planning Michael Anton will be present in Rome for the fifth round of interaction between the US and Iran.
Iran and the United States have held three rounds of three rounds from April 12 and one in Muscat and one in Rome.
In its report published on 20 May, CNN reported that the US has received new intelligence information, suggesting that Israel is preparing to attack the Iranian nuclear facilities. “US officials warned that it was not clear that Israeli leaders have taken a final decision, and in fact, there is a deep disagreement about the possibility within the US government that Israel will eventually act.
The US media outlet explained whether and how the Israeli strike would depend on what he thinks of American talks with Tehran in his nuclear program.
It said in this issue citing an anonymous source familiar with American intelligence. “But the possibility of an Israeli strike at an Iranian nuclear facility has increased significantly in recent months,” saying that “and a Trump-Used US-Iran deal is likely to be the possibility of a strike that does not remove all Iran’s uranium, the possibility of a strike is more.”
CNN reported that Trump publicly threatened military action against Iran if Tehran’s efforts to negotiate a new nuclear deal to thwart or eliminate the atomic program were thwarted. According to a source familiar with communication, in mid -March, Trump set a 60 -day time limit for those efforts to succeed.
Khamenei said on Tuesday that he does not expect a conversation with the United States on Tehran’s nuclear program, “to reach a conclusion,” the US demand, saying that Iran is not a “big mistake” to uranium. Iran says that nuclear indispensation has the right to be enriched under the Treaty of the United Nations and says it will not abandon that right under any circumstances.
The American Special Envoy for West Asia Witcoff said on Sunday that the “red line” of Trump administration in nuclear talks with Iran was that Tehran could not maintain any ability to enrich uranium. “We have a very, very clear red line, and it is enrichment. We cannot allow even 1% of a promotion capacity,” Witchoff explained the “this week” of ABC.
He said, “Everything begins … with a deal that does not include enrichment … because the enhancement enables weapons. And we will not allow a bomb here,” he said.
In response, Iranian Foreign Minister Aragchi posted on its X account: “If the US is interested in ensuring that Iran does not have nuclear weapons, then a deal is within access, and we are ready for a serious conversation to get a solution that will forever ensure that Iran will be promoted in Iran, however, with a deal.”
In July 2015, the Iran Nuclear Agreement is known as the Joint Comprehensive Action Plan (JCPOA), signed between Iran and many world powers including the United States, which dropped Tehran’s promotion level to 3.67 percent and reduced its uranium stockpile to 300 kg.
The deal was joined by Trump’s unilateral comeback in 2018 in 2018. Since then, Iran started crossing the range of more than the consent for its stockpile of low-rich uranium in 2019, and began to enrich uranium in high concentrations up to 60 percent purity, which is very close to the grade level of weapons.
