Iran's Khamenei:

I would like to tell the dear government officials, the respected officials, that no matter how much effort they put into their work, they must double it. They must multiply it.

We have many resources. The existence of this inflation in the country is illogical. The fall in the value of the national currency to this extent is illogical. This must be corrected.

And God willing, it will be corrected. The respected officials have started some work. They must continue this work with seriousness, with accuracy, and with consideration of all aspects.

Today, praise be to God, the Islamic Republic is a tall, fruitful, and blessed tree.

YPG's Mazloum Abdi:

Iran is offering new ideas in nuclear talks — but not the one Trump wants.

Tehran floated:

— Sending some enriched uranium abroad (possibly to Russia)
