TEHRAN TO WASHINGTON: IF THE TRIGGER MECHANISM IS ACTIVATED, THE RESPONSE WILL BE HARSH.
Iran has issued an explicit warning regarding the activation of the nuclear agreement’s “snapback mechanism,” stressing that any such move will be met with a firm response.
This came in remarks made by Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi during a meeting with the Iranian Parliament’s National Security and Foreign Policy Committee.
Araghchi pointed out that uranium enrichment inside Iran is an irreversible “red line,” emphasizing that Tehran will not negotiate under threat or pressure, and that Iranian diplomacy operates based on an independent vision that is not subject to political blackmail or temptations. He expressed his country’s willingness to cooperate in establishing a regional enrichment center, but stressed that enrichment within Iranian territory is “non-negotiable.”
Araghchi also held Israel partly responsible for the escalation, warning that any war that might break out in the region would not only harm one party, but would have repercussions that would extend to all countries in the region. For their part, several members of the parliamentary committee expressed their categorical rejection of any negotiations with the United States, noting that it continues to impose sanctions even while the talks are ongoing, which they described as a “dishonest approach.”
