Moscow: Russia has once again offered to assist in transferring Iran’s enriched uranium. The head of Russia’s state atomic energy corporation Rosatom, Alexei Likhachev, stated that Russia is ready to play its role in this matter.
He pointed out that along with technical issues, the lack of trust between the United States and Iran is a major problem. Russia had previously helped transfer Iran’s enriched uranium during the 2015 nuclear deal and remains prepared to do so again.
This offer comes amid expectations of renewed talks between the US and Iran. Russia says it can take Iran’s enriched uranium to its territory, convert it to fuel-grade level, or find a solution acceptable to Iran.
Reports indicate that the United States has rejected the proposal so far, while Iran has said any decision will depend on reaching an agreement with the US.
