Iran and U.S. Hold a Fifth Round of Nuclear Negotiations in Rome with Enrichment a Key Issue

12 hours ago Iranian media say the fifth round of talks between Iran and the United States over Tehran’s rapidly advancing nuclear program has begun in Rome. Iran’s enrichment of uranium has emerged as the key issue in the talks. U.S. officials up to President Donald Trump insist Iran cannot continue to enrich uranium at all in any deal that could see sanctions lifted on Tehran’s struggling economy. Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi early Friday insisted online that no enrichment would mean “we do NOT have a deal.”
