Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian denied that Tehran seeks a nuclear weapon and said it is willing to dilute uranium enrichment and submit its nuclear program to international verification. In a Fox News interview, he said Iran and President Donald Trump had agreed to a June memorandum of understanding intended to halt hostilities and establish a 60-day path toward a broader agreement, but accused Washington of blocking diplomacy through military action and sanctions. Pezeshkian also said Iran did not close the Strait of Hormuz, repeated that Tehran does not seek to continue the war, and said Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei remained fully in charge after their roughly seven-hour meeting more than a month earlier.
