Iran’s Supreme Leader Rejects Nuclear Deal Offer

简介：

Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has rejected a U.S. proposal that would allow limited uranium enrichment in Iran before phasing it out, calling it a violation of Iran’s independence. The move complicates ongoing nuclear talks, with Washington now reassessing its approach. The U.S. offer included dismantling Iran’s underground enrichment sites in exchange for allowing a regional consortium to oversee future enrichment. Iran insists on maintaining control of enrichment within its borders, the Wall Street Journal has reported. Tensions are rising as Iran continues to expand its uranium stockpile, and Western powers prepare to formally accuse Tehran of violating nuclear safeguards, potentially triggering U.N. action.
