Araqchi: Iranians Stand Firm Against Denial of Peaceful Nuclear Industry Rights

In a recent statement, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi emphasized that the Iranian people are unwavering in their demand for the right to a peaceful nuclear program. This right is essential for Iran’s sovereignty and security, particularly under the framework of the Non-Proliferation Treaty (N.P.T.).

Araqchi made these remarks during a meeting with members of the Pugwash Conferences on Science and World Affairs in Tehran on Friday. Here are some key points he highlighted:

  • Right to Peaceful Nuclear Program: Iran firmly asserts its right to a peaceful nuclear program while adhering to the principles of the N.P.T. and the prohibition of nuclear weapons.
  • Good Faith in Negotiations: Araqchi affirmed Iran’s commitment to indirect negotiations with the U.S., emphasizing the country’s N.P.T. membership and its advocacy for a nuclear-free West Asia.
  • Uranium Enrichment: While Iran is open to confidence-building measures to demonstrate the peaceful nature of its nuclear program, it will not compromise on its right to uranium enrichment.
  • Human and Financial Costs: The Foreign Minister acknowledged the significant human and financial investments made in Iran’s peaceful nuclear program, recognizing the sacrifices of Iranian scientists.
  • Critique of U.S. Statements: Araqchi criticized the inconsistency in U.S. officials’ statements regarding Iran-U.S. talks, highlighting ongoing negotiations about sanctions relief and Iran’s peaceful nuclear ambitions.
  • Commitment to International Engagement: Despite external pressures, Iran remains committed to defending its principled positions within international frameworks.

The Pugwash Conferences on Science and World Affairs aim to utilize scientific expertise and rational discourse to tackle the significant threats posed by nuclear arms and other weapons of mass destruction (WMDs). Araqchi’s comments reflect Iran’s firm stance on its nuclear rights amidst a complex geopolitical landscape.
