Vance says Iran must cut nuclear enrichment capacity to reach deal with US
US Vice President JD Vance said that Iran must make a "meaningful" reduction in its nuclear enrichment capacity to satisfy US demands and end the war.
"If you don't want a nuclear weapon, then why do you need 60% enriched fuel? And if you want to show commitment to not building a nuclear weapon, don't build highly enriched fuel. That's a very basic threshold issue," Vance said during an interview with Reuters.
"I think if they want to show a commitment to not building a nuclear weapon, they would do something meaningful on their enrichment capacity."
Vance also indicated that the US remained open to an agreement but would require concrete Iranian nuclear concessions. "We're not going to trade words for actions," he said.
