Iranian President Massoud Pezeshkian on Sunday questioned the right of the United States to limit Iran’s nuclear program and asked what legal basis Washington had for such demands.Pejeshkian said the US has no legitimate justification for denying Iran access to its technology, Reuters reported, citing the Iranian Student News Agency.Speaking publicly, Pezeshkian directly criticized the US Trump, saying, “Trump says Iran can’t use its nuclear rights, but doesn’t say for what crime. Who is he to deprive a country of its rights?” He asked question.His comments come as talks continue between Washington and Tehran, with the two sides still divided on key issues including the nuclear issue. A temporary ceasefire is also set to expire on Wednesday.Late Saturday, Iran’s parliamentary speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf said some progress had been made in talks aimed at ending the conflict, but major differences remained.“We are still very far from final discussions,” Ghalibaf said in a televised address. “We have made progress in negotiations, but there are many shortcomings and some fundamental points remain.”Iran claims that the US/Israeli strikes violate the UN Charter, the NPT, and sovereignty, lacking congressional approval or justification of imminent threat. No IAEA report conclusively proves NPT violations by Iran before the attack.
