Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi warned Sunday evening that if an enemy attempts to enforce a claim for compensation, Iran will confront and respond to it. In a separate statement, he said no final decision has been made on the nuclear issue, with sanctions relief and nuclear matters deferred to a final agreement. Araghchi reiterated that dilution of enriched uranium within Iran is the only acceptable method for addressing the 60% enriched stockpile.
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi delivered two distinct statements Sunday evening that together signal Tehran's hardened posture on both the nuclear file and potential external claims. On the nuclear issue, Araghchi stated that no decision has yet been reached, with both sanctions relief and enriched material reserves deferred to a final agreement — aligning with his remarks from Saturday evening, as The Zioneer reported at 22:20 and 22:45 Jerusalem, in which he described dilution inside Iran as Tehran's sole acceptable path for the 60% stockpile. Araghchi's Sunday statement reinforces that position, saying the solution for enriched materials will follow this approach.
Separately, Araghchi issued a warning against any attempt by an adversary to enforce compensation demands, vowing that Iran would retaliate if such a claim is acted upon. The threat was not directed at a named country, but follows weeks of diplomatic tension over potential war reparations related to the conflict with Israel and regional destabilization.
Araghchi added that Iran has consulted with China and other countries on the Strait of Hormuz management issue, which he said will remain under Iranian-Omani supervision but with future arrangements differing from the past. The Iranian FM has consistently said no agreement will satisfy one side fully, and that the timing of any signing depends on a final decision within Iran. The statements come as the nuclear diplomatic thread continues, with no confirmation of a final deal.
