Iran Rules Out Nuclear Concessions in US Talks

timesnownews.com —

Iran has ruled out making any concessions on its nuclear program, even if the United States accepts its proposal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz in exchange for lifting the naval blockade, a senior Iranian official said Friday. The official, speaking anonymously, said the strait will remain closed until all of Iran's conditions are met, though Tehran is prepared to negotiate nuclear details afterward. Iran's offer includes reopening the strait within seven days of a deal, with the US lifting its blockade, releasing frozen funds, and waiving oil sanctions. Iran denies seeking nuclear weapons, but the US and Israel point to its 60 percent uranium enrichment, near weapons-grade levels. The IAEA estimated Iran held 440.9 kilograms of such material before strikes on its facilities in June 2025, with the remaining stockpile unclear.
