Iranian deputy foreign minister for legal and international affairs Kazem Gharibabadi revealed that he held candid discussions with Enrique Mora, a senior EU diplomat, addressing a wide range of issues, including the future of nuclear negotiations and the potential for sanctions relief, amid recent developments.

Gharibabadi emphasized that the European Union must stop its "arrogant and irresponsible behavior," adding that Europe should not project its own internal issues, particularly those surrounding the Ukraine war, onto others.

He also criticized Europe's moral authority, stating, "Europe lacks the ethical standing to advise others on human rights, especially considering the complicity of its three major nations in the genocide in Gaza."

The Iranian diplomat further noted that Europe had long distanced itself from playing an active role in the Iranian nuclear talks, citing a lack of responsibility and self-assurance.

Iran could militarize nuclear program amid pressure

Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi cautioned on Thursday that ongoing Western threats to reimpose United Nations sanctions could push Iran's nuclear file toward militarization.

Speaking in Portugal, Araghchi underscored that such pressure might drive internal debates in Iran toward pursuing nuclear weapons—a course previously excluded from the country's security strategy.

During his remarks, Araghchi criticized the European Troika (France, Germany, and the UK), accusing them of adopting a confrontational stance against Iran. He also highlighted Tehran's decision to activate thousands of advanced centrifuges as a direct response to what he described as "nonconstructive policies" from these nations.

"Iran previously possessed the capability and knowledge to develop nuclear weapons, but this option has never been part of our strategic framework," Araghchi stated. He added that Iran has no current intention to enrich uranium beyond 60% but emphasized the need for equitable collaboration to resolve the nuclear issue honorably.

Criticism for Iran

Last week, Al Mayadeen obtained a copy of the draft resolution presented by France, the United Kingdom, Germany, and the United States, which criticizes Iran for allegedly failing to disclose its nuclear activities.

The seven articles at the end of this draft indicate that Western countries want, through the resolution they have submitted against Iran, to re-implement the nuclear agreement signed in 2015.

However, they overlook the fact that the agreement is no longer in effect since the United States withdrew from it and the Europeans have failed to fulfill their obligations under the commitments they signed off on in 2016.
