Iran's Nuclear Stand-Off: Diplomacy and Tensions Amid Global Pressure

Iran is open to resolving nuclear disputes but refuses to cave under pressure, as its foreign minister conveyed to the UN nuclear chief. Amid European diplomatic efforts before Trump's potential re-election, tensions rise over Iran's uranium enrichment, prompting a potential resolution by the IAEA board.

Iran's foreign minister asserted the nation's willingness to address nuclear disagreements without yielding to pressure. This statement, delivered to the UN nuclear watchdog's head, takes place amid European diplomatic efforts to resolve tensions before Donald Trump's possible return to the White House.

Despite diplomatic attempts, European countries seek a new resolution against Iran next week due to Tehran's perceived inadequate cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). Under Trump's administration, the U.S. withdrew from the 2015 nuclear deal, intensifying the complex diplomatic landscape.

Iran's trajectory in uranium enrichment continues to escalate, reaching near weapon-grade levels, while insisting on peaceful intent. Tehran warns of restricting cooperation with the IAEA if pressured, as it balances diplomacy against the mounting international scrutiny over its nuclear agenda.
