Asim Munir Went To Iran With Uranium Deal And US' Last Warning, Tehran Tells Him To 'Get Back On His Plane'

Pakistan Army Chief's fresh attempt to broker peace talks between Iran and the United States has reportedly suffered a huge setback as he received a cold welcome from Iran's new security council chief, Mohsen Rezaei. He was subsequently told to "get back on his plane."

Lebanese newspaper Al-Akhbar claimed that Munir had handed Rezaei an ultimatum from United States President Donald Trump that demanded Tehran to concede its uranium enrichment program and hand over the enriched radioactive fuel.

Earlier reports had suggested that Munir had arrived in Tehran with a proposal that Iran transfer part of its enriched uranium to another country, a demand vehemently rejected by Rezaei.

Razaei had told the visiting Pakistani general that even a bit of uranium won't leave the country. In an X post, Rezaei said, "Not a single gram of enriched uranium will be removed from Iran. There will be no negotiations until the United States takes steps to build trust. That process must begin with the full fulfilment of all Iran’s conditions."

"Such materials constitute a major asset and national wealth for the Iranian people, intended for use within the country," he added. According to a report by Iran International, Munir had said, "Tehran would need to show greater flexibility in talks over its nuclear program."

Delivering a blow to Munir's stance, Iran drew a red line, stating that there would be no negotiations with the US until it took meaningful steps to build trust.

Iran has demanded that its seven conditions must be accepted first. During his visit, Munir also held key talks with Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian and Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf.

The Lebanese newspaper further reported that Ghalibaf also told Munir there was nothing new for Iran to say.

Munir reportedly warned Razaei that it was a 'last warning' from the US and failure to accept its demands could lead to 'wide-scale attacks' on nuclear facilities.
