Speaking to a national television correspondent for the National Iranian television after attending the fourth round of talks with the US over Iran’s nuclear issue and removal of Tehran’s sanctions in Muscat on Sunday, Iran’s main negotiator said “The enrichment must continue, but there may be no compromise on that.”
“But essentially rich isn’t for negotiation,” he said.
Regarding the lifting of repressive sanctions against Iran as a topic of discussion, Araguchi said Iran is in consultation with the US to obtain the removal of sanctions in return for accepting the curbs in its nuclear program.
“Removing sanctions is one of the foundations of consultations and is something the parties agree to,” he emphasized.
“Like I said, we are now approaching each other on unresolved issues. We now understand each other very well,” said the top Iranian negotiator.
He further expressed his hopes of further progress in future consultations.
