https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/iran-will-make-no-nuclear-concessions-iranian-official-says-2026-09-25/UNITED NATIONS, Sept 25 (Reuters) - Iran will show no flexibility over its nuclear program even if the United States accepts its proposal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, which calls for steps including the lifting of a US naval blockade on Iranian ports, a senior Iranian official told Reuters on Friday.The official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the waterway would remain closed until “all of Iran’s conditions are met” by the United States.Under Iran’s proposal, Tehran has offered to reopen the strategically vital Strait of Hormuz. Within seven days, hostilities would end on all fronts, including Lebanon, the United States would lift its blockade on Iranian ports, release Iran’s frozen funds and waive its oil sanctions, Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi said on Thursday.The proposal follows a sharp escalation in Middle East tensions after seven months of war between Iran and the United States, with Iran-backed Houthi militias in Yemen launching missiles and drones at Saudi Arabia.The strait has become the central bargaining chip in efforts to end the US-Iran conflict, with Iran seeking relief from the US blockade that is choking its economy and Washington seeking free passage for ships on the global oil supply route now blocked by Tehran.In a meeting with journalists on Thursday on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian said he hoped a deal with Washington to end the hostilities could be reached before the US midterm elections on November 3.Tehran said it would be prepared to engage in detailed negotiations over its nuclear program only after its conditions are met by the US.But the official said Iran would give no concessions over its rights, including enriching uranium or shipping its highly enriched uranium out of the country, one of the main US demands.
Israel, the United States and other Western states have long accused Iran of seeking nuclear weapons, including pointing to its move to enrich uranium to 60%, far higher than needed for civilian uses and closer to the 90% needed for a weapon. Iran denies seeking nuclear weapons.The International Atomic Energy Agency estimates that Iran had 440.9 kg of uranium enriched to 60% when Israel and the US attacked Iranian nuclear facilities in June 2025. How much of that has survived is unclear.Iranian authorities have said that Iran could agree to dilute its most highly enriched uranium.In May, Reuters reported that Iran's Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei has issued a directive that the country's HEU should not be sent abroad, according to two senior Iranian sources.
>>1539220Why the fuck would they make any deals at all with the US? Why would anybody? Trump's a liar. He breaks promises and deals all the time. Agreements made with somebody known to break agreements mean nothing.
>>1539227It's not about making deals, it's about Trump appearing to be a 'strongman', so he can impress his supporters from week to week. Actually following up on what he says is secondary, it's the boasting they like, it makes their peepees hard.
How the fuck is the USA supposed to stop Israel's war? Yeah they are allies but you can't force another country, especially Israel, to not do something.
>>1539244Stop bombing and blockading Iran and use all the aid we give to Israel as leverage to get them to back of.
>>1539245Why? They don't deserve shit.
They're bluffing. They're on the edge of collapse and everyone knows it. President Trump is winning. America is winning, per usual.
>>1539252How are we winning if we've already won like 100 times already? Shouldn't it be won already?
>>1539250That isn't the question that was asked. >>15392522 more weeks, comrade.
>>1539255>That isn't the question that was asked.That's the answer to the question. Even when JCPOA was in effect they were still fucking with the assets of US allies.Thus why JCPOA was cancelled.They deserve nothing but out contempt and our bombs.Leave it to Dems to side with the country whose slogan has been "Death to America!!!".Also fuck pissrael. Let's just not give Israel shit and lower taxes.
>>1539264No, it's not. >>1539244 asked how the USA is supposed to stop "Israel's" war, >>1539245 answered that. What Iran deserves is irrelevant. >Also fuck pissrael. Let's just not give Israel shit and lower taxes.I agree. It's not going to happen under Trump.
>>1539265Actually it can only happen under Trump.
>>1539271That's the least believable thing you've said yet. Yeah, man, I'm sure the guy who started a war for Israel is champing at the bit to cut off aid to Israel.
>>1539274The war in Iran has nothing to do with Israel and everything to do with the fact that the Iranians are building nukes to drop on American cities and have been attacking us using proxy forces for decades. President Trump has done more to rein in Israel than any other administration. If there was any proof to your claim, than why isnt America aiding Israel in its fight against Hezballah and Hamas? Because these are separate conflicts that have nothing to do with eachother.
>>1539275>"Israel's war" has nothing to do with Israel>war started at Israel's behest has nothing to do with IsraelOkay.
>>1539276>war started at Israel's behest This is completely false.
>>1539276Israel has been affected by Iran, but so have many US "allies". It's a war that benefits Israel, yes, but it also benefits anyone shipping through Hormuz and negatively affects Russia and China.ridiculous as Iran's attacks have affected worldwide fuel costs.
Fucking up the fuel prices.
>>1539220I think Iran should be bound to the same nuclear constraints that Israel isThat is, none at all
>>1539220I'd rather siege them until they grow the fuck up.
>>1539283Wow, you sound almost as smart as kegseth. Why don't you go fight in the fucking suicide inducing conditions in our navy the mismanagement has caused, you fucking pussy faggot? Real easy to talk about how you want to seige people behind a keyboard isn't it bitch?
>>1539244Israel has nothing that was not given to them. The country can't exist without charity from their gullible lapdogs.
>>15392891539283 sounds just as drunk as Kegsbreath.
