Afghan Voice Agency (AVA): Iranian Foreign Minister Seyyed Abbas Araqchi told reporters today (Wednesday) about his trip to Moscow: The purpose of the trip to Moscow is to convey a written message from the Supreme Leader of the Revolution to the Russian President, which will be made during a meeting with Mr. Putin.
Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Esmail Baghaei announced Araqchi's pre-arranged trip to Moscow at the end of this week in a weekly press conference on Monday.
If they come with constructive positions
The Iranian Foreign Minister also spoke about the indirect talks with the US, the second round of which is scheduled to be held on Saturday, March 20, and the contradictory statements made by American officials: We have heard different statements and sometimes contradictory positions from American officials, which in my opinion will not help the proper process of negotiations at all.
At the same time, Araqchi reminded: However, we must learn about their real opinions during the negotiation session. If they come with constructive positions, we hope to be able to start negotiations on the framework of a possible agreement.
The first round of indirect talks between Iran and the US was held on March 23 in Muscat, chaired by Araqchi and Whittaker, Trump's special representative for the Middle East.
Nothing will be achieved through pressure and imposition
Araqchi called Iran's position and performance clear and said: They will not achieve anything by applying pressure.
He continued: If the negotiation is based on an equal position and in a respectful atmosphere, it can move forward, but nothing will be achieved through pressure and imposing their positions.
Araqchi added: We have proven this in practice and in our positions. We will participate in the negotiations in complete calm and tranquility without being influenced by any pressure or current, God willing.
Enrichment is not negotiable
The head of the Iranian diplomatic service also stated about enrichment in Iran: Iran's enrichment is a real, accepted and true matter. We are ready to build trust with respect to possible concerns. But the essence of enrichment is not negotiable.
