Iranian journalist Mehrdad Khalili has commented on the Reuters report regarding Sayyed Mojtaba Khamenei’s refusal to transfer enriched uranium out of Iran.
He stated that regardless of the accuracy of the report, Tehran’s experience in this matter has been very painful for the political leadership. Iran handed over 11 tons of enriched uranium in 2015 under the nuclear agreement and received nothing in return.
Secondly, Trump tore up this agreement which Iran had fully adhered to and then waged two wars on Iran in just one year with all focus solely on uranium.
Khalili questioned how Iran can be expected to easily agree to transfer enriched uranium in front of an American president like Trump.
