Iran rejects Trump’s uranium claims and has firmly denied any agreement to hand over its enriched uranium to the United States. The response came after President Donald Trump said Washington would work with Tehran to recover and take control of its nuclear material.
Trump suggested the US and Iran could jointly retrieve enriched uranium and move it out of the country. However, Iranian officials quickly dismissed the idea, calling it completely false.
Tehran made it clear that its nuclear programme is not up for compromise in that way. Officials said enriched uranium remains a national asset and will not be transferred under any circumstances. They stressed that uranium enrichment is part of Iran’s peaceful nuclear policy and a key national interest.
Iran rejects Trump’s uranium claims at a time when tensions remain high over nuclear negotiations. Officials described the US statements as misleading and accused Washington of trying to shape public opinion during sensitive talks.
Senior Iranian figures also pushed back against suggestions that Tehran would halt its nuclear programme. They called such demands a red line and said Iran would continue its current policy regardless of outside pressure.
At the same time, disagreements between the two sides continue to slow down diplomatic progress. While Trump has repeatedly claimed that a deal is close, Iranian leaders say no such agreement exists and major differences remain.
Iran rejects Trump’s uranium claims as both sides keep talking but remain far apart on key issues. The future of nuclear negotiations now depends on whether these gaps can be narrowed in the coming days.
