Iran, US hold fifth round of nuclear negotiations in Rome with enrichment key issue

Rome, May 23 (AP) The fifth round of talks between Iran and the United States over Tehran’s rapidly advancing nuclear programme began Friday in Rome, Iranian media reported.

The reports across several news outlets follow the arrival of multiple convoys to the Omani Embassy in Rome just after 1 pm. The embassy previously served as the site of another round of talks.

Iran’s enrichment of uranium has emerged as the key issue in the talks.

US officials up to President Donald Trump insist Iran cannot continue to enrich uranium at all in any deal that could see sanctions lifted on Tehran’s struggling economy.

Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi early Friday insisted online that no enrichment would mean “we do NOT have a deal”. (AP) SCY SCY
