U.S. Vice President JD Vance said Iran should reduce its uranium enrichment capacity in order to end its conflict with the United States, according to a report from TASS.
Vance reportedly expressed concern over Iran's possession of highly enriched nuclear fuel, according to the report, and said the United States would seek concrete concessions from Iran on nuclear-related matters as part of any resolution to the tensions between the two countries.
The remarks touch on one of the central points of contention in the long-running standoff between Washington and Tehran: the scope and purpose of Iran's nuclear program. Iran has maintained that its nuclear activities are for peaceful purposes, while the United States and some of its allies have expressed concern that enrichment levels beyond what is needed for civilian energy use could be aimed at developing weapons-grade material.
TASS's report does not specify the setting in which Vance made the comments, nor does it detail what specific concessions the U.S. side is seeking beyond a reduction in enrichment capacity.
The reported remarks come amid a broader period of tension between the US and Iran, with the report not providing additional detail on the current state of negotiations or any upcoming diplomatic engagements between the two governments.
