Why it matters:
Araghchi’s remarks signal Iran’s intent to pursue its nuclear program with diplomatic openness, while condemning Israeli aggression as a barrier to progress.
What we're hearing:
Abbas Araghchi: “Guided by our principles, we remain dedicated to resolving disputes peacefully. On our nuclear program, we have consistently affirmed that the Iranian people’s nuclear rights are non-negotiable. Yet, we are open to addressing concerns, clarifying ambiguities, and taking steps to foster greater trust in our nuclear activities."
The big picture:
Iran's Armed Forces launched new delf-dense operations against the Israeli regime as it has continued aggression on locations in Iran since early Friday morning. The U.S.-backed military aggression on Iran came as the U.S. has put pressure on Iran to accept a U.S.-desired deal, ellimination of Iran's nuclear industry.
State of play:
Combined offensive operation "True Promise III" is being carried out in response to Israeli aggression on Iran, targeting fighter jets' fuel production facilities and the energy supply centers in the Israeli-occupied territories with a large number of drones and missiles, just as part of the its self-defense operation against Israeli regime.
