In recent developments concerning Iran's nuclear program, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has reiterated Tehran's firm stance on maintaining its right to uranium enrichment, a position that remains a 'red line' in ongoing negotiations with the United States. According to Middle East Eye, Araghchi stated, 'Zero enrichment can never be accepted by us,' emphasizing that any agreement must recognize Iran's right to enrich uranium for peaceful purposes. This sentiment was echoed across multiple sources, including Al Jazeera, which reported that Iran is open to a deal with the US but insists that discussions remain focused on the nuclear issue, excluding its missile program, which Araghchi described as 'never negotiable' (Al Jazeera, February 07, 2026). The sentiment surrounding these talks is predominantly negative, with skepticism about US intentions, as noted by The Hindu, which highlighted Iran's doubts due to ongoing US sanctions and military maneuvers.
