Iran’s stockpile of 60 percent enriched uranium remains the central sticking point in U.S.-Iran negotiations. “We will get it. We don’t need it, we don’t want it. We’ll probably destroy it after we get it, but we’re not going to let them have it,” President Trump told reporters. Tehran’s position is that it will downblend the material domestically. A senior Iranian official pushed back against a Reuters report claiming Supreme Leader Mujtaba Khamenei had directed that the uranium not be sent abroad, telling Al Jazeera’s Ali Hashem such reports are “propaganda by the enemies of the deal” and that Tehran’s stance has been consistent: Iran would downblend the material itself, a question to be resolved “in the next stage” of talks.
