Iranian president says Tehran can provide written assurances on its nuclear intentions ahead of talks with the US in Switzerland.
President Masoud Pezeshkian said Iran is willing to guarantee it is not pursuing nuclear weapons but will not abandon its right to enrich uranium, ahead of fresh negotiations with the United States.
Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian reiterated on Sunday that Tehran was willing to provide assurances that the country was not seeking a nuclear weapon, while insisting that Iran would not relinquish its right to enrich uranium.
"What the United States demands is that Iran not build an atomic bomb. This is nothing new, and we can also state in writing that we have no intention of building a bomb," the president's website quoted him as saying.
"However, we will not relinquish our right to enrichment, and the other side will have no choice but to accept this right," he added, before Iranian and US negotiators were set to meet for talks in Switzerland later on Sunday.
