Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has declared that the country will continue its uranium enrichment program, emphasizing its significance for the pursuit of energy independence. During a speech commemorating the founder of the Islamic Republic, Khamenei dismissed US proposals that would require Iran to halt enrichment, labeling them as contrary to the values of self-reliance and independence. He asserted that Tehran will not seek approval from the US for its nuclear decisions and criticized US interference in the matter, signaling a likely rejection of the latest proposal aimed at resolving nuclear tensions.
Khamenei said the issue of uranium enrichment remained key to Iran's pursuit of energy independence, rejecting US demands for a halt to enrichment.
The US nuclear proposal contradicts our nation's belief in self-reliance and the principle of "We Can," Khamenei stated during a commemorative speech.
Khamenei emphasized that independence means not waiting for the green light from America, asserting that the US proposal was against the ideals of the 1979 Islamic revolution.
Tehran wants to master nuclear technology for peaceful purposes and firmly rejects the idea that it should seek Washington's approval for its decisions.
