“Iranian officials say they are not seeking a nuclear bomb but insist that uranium enrichment is their sovereign right and intended for civilian use.”

“Speaking to India Today on Wednesday, Peskov said Russia’s offer had been made 'quite a time ago' and that Tehran had been 'okay with it' at the time.”

“He called the plan 'a very good solution,' but said 'unfortunately, the American side rejected this proposal,' adding that Russian President Vladimir Putin 'is ready to return to this initiative.'”

“Asked whether Russia would allow full oversight by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), Peskov replied: 'We are in full cooperation.' He said Iran was 'one of the most heavily inspected' countries by the UN watchdog, which 'has never acknowledged any attempt by Iran to make nuclear weapons.'”

“Peskov’s remarks come amid reports of ongoing indirect contacts over a possible second round of US-Iran negotiations after last week’s talks in Islamabad ended without a breakthrough.”
