Iranian President, Masoud Pezeshkian has firmly stated that US President Donald Trump has no grounds to deny Iran its nuclear rights.

The Iranian Student News Agency quoted him on Sunday criticizing Trump and the United States’ efforts to hinder Iran’s nuclear capabilities, Reuters reported.

President Pezeshkian said “Trump asserts that Iran cannot exercise its nuclear rights but does not clarify the alleged offense. Who is he to deny a nation its rights?”

Meanwhile, amid mediation efforts, Iran says it will not reopen the crucial maritime trade chokepoint until the United States lifts its blockade of Iranian ports.

In a televised address on Saturday night, Iranian parliament speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf said talks with Washington have made “progress,” but significant gaps and key issues remain.
