Tehran to test nuclear reactor redesigned in preparation for operation

Al Arabiya news agency reported on Friday in breaking news that Iranian media revealed that Tehran will test within days a nuclear reactor that has been redesigned in preparation for operation within a year.

Last Wednesday, Mahmoud Vaezi, Director of the Office of the Iranian President, Hassan Rouhani, confirmed that Tehran has received letters from Washington through European countries and the Swiss embassy there in Iran.

Vaezi pointed out that “there were no direct or indirect negotiations with Washington.”

He noted  that “Iran has no intention of holding negotiations at the present time.”

He said, “We have not conducted any bilateral negotiations with America since Joe Biden took office, and what is going on about that is not true.”
