🇺🇸 🇮🇷 🇪🇺 ⚡️ — Advisor to Ayatollah Khamenei, Ali Shamkhani:

The next step is war, and we hope they will reconsider and refrain from this option. Send us proposals. If they are far from threats and arrogance and include logical conditions, there is hope of avoiding a catastrophe. Things are now in the preliminary stages, and I believe there is a possibility of achieving this goal and avoiding war. Tehran has confirmed its readiness for practical negotiations with Washington, not with others. Europe has practically proven its inability to do anything. Trump himself did not allow the Europeans to intervene in that matter, so the issue is solely with the United States and concerns only the nuclear issue.

@TPOnow

🇮🇷 ⚡️ — Advisor to Ayatollah Khamenei, Ali Shamkhani:

On the nuclear issue, there is a possibility of reaching an agreement through dialogue and negotiation, provided that we steer clear of a threatening atmosphere. By sitting fairly at the negotiating table and refraining from illogical conditions and demands, reaching an agreement is possible. understand or doesn't want to understand that when we say that producing or possessing nuclear weapons is forbidden, this doesn't change the practical orders. The previous rounds, we had three 'no's': We do not seek nuclear weapons, we will not go to produce them, and we will not store them. They should pay the price for that. Regarding the storage of 60% enriched nuclear materials, we did not produce them for military purposes and we have no intentions in this regard. Our program is peaceful and our capabilities are local. We can reduce the enrichment rate from 60% to 20%, but they have to pay the corresponding price. There is no reason to transfer stored materials outside of Iran, and it is possible to return to 20% enrichment, so there is no need for all the complex procedures.

@TPOnow

⚡️ — Shamkhani:

If negotiations start with the two basic conditions of distancing ourselves from threats and illogical orders, there is a possibility for meetings.

🔴A stipulation of the negotiations is their restriction to the topic of nuclear matters. The opposing party has also declared that the primary focus is on the nuclear issue.
