Al-Arabiya's claim about Tehran agreeing to transfer uranium reserves to a third country is not true, according to Fars
Newsquawk Staff ·
- An informed source close to the Iranian negotiating team on Friday denied a Saudi media report that Tehran had agreed to transfer part of its enriched uranium reserves to a third country, calling it incorrect.
- The source told a Fars News Agency political correspondent: "Issues related to the nuclear file are not on the agenda at the current stage of the negotiations and their consideration has been postponed to the next stages of the talks."
- "The issue of transferring uranium reserves is not on the current agenda of the negotiations, and first the American side must take its specific and decisive actions and reach clear and final agreements on some fundamental issues."
- Negotiations between Iran and the United States aimed at reaching a ceasefire agreement and starting 60-day talks were halted after the US attacks on several commercial ships in southern Iran and the Israeli army's invasion of southern Lebanon.
