Iran calls enrichment A red line; details open

Oct 7

The report recalls Vance's October 5 demand for substantially reduced Iranian enrichment capacity to end the conflict. It cites an unnamed senior Iranian official's October 7 Reuters interview saying U.S. demands differ from Iran's: recognition of Iran's enrichment right is a non-negotiable red line, but enrichment details could be discussed later. No agreement or refusal of all future nuclear discussion is established.
