Islamic Republic considering Russia’s offer to take 60%-enriched uranium, Baghaei says
Iran is considering a Russian offer to take custody of its uranium enriched to 60%, but will make a final decision based on its national interests, the foreign ministry spokesman said on Sunday.
Esmaeil Baghaei said Moscow had previously proposed ways to reduce tensions and that Iran was willing to hear its suggestions.
He added that Iran regularly consults with Russia on nuclear issues and coordinates with Moscow and Beijing if new developments arise.
He described relations between Tehran and Moscow as good, saying the two countries also maintain regular coordination through BRICS and the Shanghai Cooperation Organization.
