Iran's Khamenei Rejects U.S. Nuclear Proposal, Vows to Keep Enriching Uranium
(New York Times) Amelia Nierenberg - Iran's supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, said on Wednesday that abandoning uranium enrichment was "100 percent" against Tehran's interests, effectively rejecting a key U.S. demand in negotiations over Iran's nuclear program. The Trump administration over the weekend proposed the outline of a deal that would allow Iran to continue enriching uranium, but only temporarily. Khamenei said that Iran's "response to the U.S. government's nonsense is clear....The rude and arrogant leaders of America repeatedly demand that we should not have a nuclear program. They cannot do anything about this....We've told the Americans: 'What business is it of yours whether Iran pursues enrichment or not?'"
