Iran's right to enrichment
The Iranian foreign minister has emphasized that the country’s right to enrichment must be upheld in any nuclear negotiations with the West. Araghchi warned that the three European countries are making a grave miscalculation by assuming that the snapback mechanism affords them strategic leverage over Iran’s nuclear file. He described such a notion as fundamentally flawed. Resorting to snapback, he argued, would only further complicate and hinder efforts toward a diplomatic resolution. Araghchi also said attacks on Iran harmed the Non-Proliferation Treaty and the principles and rules of international law. Araghchi underscored Iran’s commitment to preserving its national capabilities, particularly its military strength, which, he said, was clearly demonstrated during the recent conflict with Israel and the US. The Iranian foreign minister stressed that this capability remains non-negotiable. The top diplomat said Iran remains open to building mutual trust through diplomacy. However, Araghchi noted that other parties must first prove that their interest in negotiations stems from a commitment to dialogue and not as a tactical facade to pursue ulterior goals.
US-Israeli genocide in Gaza
It’s been another deadly day for Palestinians in Gaza as the Israeli military presses ahead with its aggression against the besieged territory. In one of the latest strikes, nearly 20 people were killed after the Israeli military bombed a Palestinian home in Jabalia, northern Gaza. Fatalities were also reported in Israeli bombing of an apartment in Shama'a area, in Gaza City, also in the north. The Bani Suhaila, Sheikh Nasser, and al-Balad neighborhoods in Khan Yunis, southern Gaza were also the scene of deadly Israeli attacks. Earlier on Saturday, at least 30 people were killed and some 200 others injured after Israeli forces opened fire on Palestinians seeking aid near a distribution center in Rafah, southern Gaza. The ongoing Israeli onslaught, which began in October 2023, has so far killed more than 57,880 Palestinians. Nearly 138,100 others have been injured.
Trump tariff war
US President Donald Trump has announced fresh tariffs on Mexico and the European Union as part of the economic war he has escalated since taking office for a second term.

He warned that the US would further raise the levies if the EU imposes retaliatory tariffs. Trump announced the same 30-percent rate on Mexican goods, also beginning next month. Trump has also imposed new 35-percent tariffs on Canada. In response, Ottawa has vowed to diversify trade and turn toward Europe.
