Tehran: Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said that his country is ready to hold nuclear talks with America, provided there is assurance of no further attacks on it. State media gave this information. In a speech to foreign diplomats in Tehran, Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi ( Araghch) said Iran has always been ready to negotiate about its nuclear program and will remain so in the future, but “assurances must be given that this tendency will not lead to war in case negotiations resume.”
US should guarantee that it will not attack again
Referring to the 12-day Israeli bombing of Iran’s nuclear and military sites and the US attack on June 22, Araghchi said that if the US and other countries want to resume talks with Iran, “first of all, there must be firm guarantees that such actions will not happen again.”
Attacks on Iran’s nuclear installations complicate solution
Attacks on Iran’s nuclear installations have made finding a negotiated solution even more difficult and complicated. After the attacks, Iran halted cooperation with the UN nuclear watchdog, forcing inspectors to return. Araghchi said that under Iranian law, the country would respond to the agency’s request for cooperation “on a case-by-case basis” based on Iran’s interests.
He also said that any inspections carried out by the agency should be done with Iran’s “security” concerns in mind as well as the safety of inspectors. “There is a great risk of the spread of radioactive elements in the attacked nuclear sites and the explosion of the remaining ammunition of the war,” he said.
My life is in danger from Iran: Nargis Mohammadi
Iran’s security agencies have said that the life of Nobel Peace Prize winner Nargis Mohammadi is in danger. This threat has arisen after Iran’s war with Israel. Norway’s Nobel Committee and activists said this on Friday. According to Norway’s Nobel Committee, Mohammadi said that she has received death threats through her lawyer and other indirect channels because she (Mohammadi) has continued to make public statements on the Islamic Republic’s theocracy, women’s rights and other issues. “In his (Mohammadi’s) own words, the clear message is that he has been threatened with ‘physical elimination’ both directly and indirectly by agents of the regime,” the Nobel Committee said.
