Nuclear talks to go ahead — Despite Khamenei’s rhetoric, Iran’s president said, his country:
1. will continue talks with the US over its rapidly advancing nuclear program
2. but will not give up its rights because of US threats.

President Masoud Pezeshkian said during a speech to navy officials broadcast by state television Saturday:
1. “We are negotiating, and we will negotiate, we are not after war but we do not fear any threat,”
2. “It is not like that they think if they threaten us , we will give up our human right and definite right,”
3. “We will not withdraw, we will not easily loose honorable military, scientific, nuclear in all fields.”

Trump has repeatedly threatened to unleash airstrikes targeting Iran’s program if a deal isn’t reached. Iranian officials increasingly warn they could pursue a nuclear weapon with their stockpile of uranium enriched to near weapons-grade levels.

On Friday, Trump said Iran received a proposal during the talks, though he did not elaborate.
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said the nuclear talks with the United States are being delayed because Washington frequently changes its stance.

During his trip to the region this week, Trump at nearly every event insisted Iran would not be allowed to obtain the bomb.

Israel views Iran — which repeatedly calls for its destruction — as an existential threat and has vowed to prevent Tehran from acquiring nuclear weapons.
