Iran rules out transfer of enriched nuclear material abroad

Iran’s security chief Mohsen Rezaei has said the country will not allow any of its enriched nuclear material to leave its territory under any circumstances.

Rezaei made the remarks during a meeting with Pakistan’s army chief, Asim Munir, in Tehran, according to Iran’s semi-official Fars news agency, Al Jazeera reported.

He also said negotiations with the United States would not begin until Washington took confidence-building measures and met Iran’s latest conditions.

The remarks echoed those of Iran’s parliament speaker and chief negotiator, Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, who also met with Munir on Tuesday.
