Tehran.- Iran has presented an offer related to a potential nuclear agreement to the United States via an intermediary from Oman, according to the official IRNA news agency. «The delegation of the Islamic Republic of Iran has put forward proposals to the American side that would resolve all of the United States’ objections regarding Iran’s nuclear programme,» noted the Iranian state media. On Thursday, Iran and the United States began a third round of negotiations, while the American president, Donald Trump, issues threats of military intervention, having deployed forces in the Middle East since the Iraq war. Both parties enter the indirect negotiations with diverging positions. Washington maintains its demand that uranium enrichment in Iran be halted and that the range of its missiles be restricted, while Tehran asserts it will only agree to reduce its nuclear programme if sanctions are lifted. Iran’s president, Masud Pezeshkian, reaffirmed today that the Islamic Republic has no intention of developing nuclear weapons. «Trump has claimed that Iran must declare it does not seek nuclear weapons, but we have already stated this on several occasions,» Pezeshkian commented. Additionally, the president reminded that Iran’s supreme leader, Ali Khamenei, has prohibited the creation of nuclear weapons in the country.
