In an interview, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said that Iran will not give up its uranium enrichment program despite U.S. insistence and that “serious” damage to Iran’s nuclear facilities was caused by U.S. airstrikes. Araghchi would not comment on the fate of Iran’s enriched uranium stockpile, but said that all enrichment activities had ceased for the time being and that the extent of the damage to Iran’s nuclear facilities is being evaluated by the atomic energy organization.
