Iran Considers Halting Uranium Enrichment

ARK News.. Iran has announced that it is considering suspending uranium enrichment, indicating that Tehran's position may be shifting in line with its national interests.

Iranian media quoted government spokesperson Fatima Mohajerani on Wednesday, November 19, 2025, as saying, “Uranium enrichment is not currently being carried out, and the possibility of completely halting the enrichment process is under consideration in line with national interests.

The adopting of a compromise solution in the nuclear dispute with the West is being studied.” Mohajerani added that the country's Atomic Energy Organization, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the Supreme National Security Council will decide on the best option for Iran.

For his part, Kamal Kharrazi, a senior adviser to Iran's supreme leader, said Tehran is ready to resume nuclear talks with the Trump administration and negotiate a reduction in uranium enrichment levels.

Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Ismail Baghaei also announced on November 10 that IAEA inspectors visited Iranian nuclear sites last week, saying: “We are obliged to make a decision on any request from the agency to inspect nuclear facilities after coordinating with the Supreme National Security Council.” U.S. President Donald Trump withdrew in 2018 from the 2015 nuclear agreement between Iran and major world powers, imposing numerous unilateral sanctions on Iran.
