US proposals on Iran deal contradict Tehran’s principles, says Khamenei
The conditions put forward by the United States during negotiations to resolve the crisis over Iran’s nuclear program contradict the fundamental principles of the Islamic Republic, Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei said.
“Our main principle in defending our interests is ‘we can.’ Even in the latest nuclear negotiations mediated by Oman, all U.S. proposals totally contradict this principle,” Khamenei said in his speech marking the 36th anniversary of the death of Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini.
