Iran says it is ready for nuclear talks but will not negotiate under pressure

Iranian officials have stated they are prepared to resume negotiations over their nuclear program, but they are setting clear conditions. President Pezeshkian and Foreign Minister Araghchi emphasized that Iran prefers to resolve issues through diplomacy, but they will not accept pre-judged outcomes or negotiate under pressure.

A key proposal from Iran's nuclear chief is that the country is willing to dilute its stockpile of 60% enriched uranium, but only if all sanctions against Iran are lifted. A second round of indirect talks between Iranian and American officials recently concluded in Geneva, with discussions focusing on the details of lifting sanctions and nuclear commitments.
