Iran's 60% enrichment response to illegitimate sanctions

TEHRAN, Jul. 08 (MNA) – Mikhail Ulyanov, Russia’s Permanent Representative to International Organizations in Geneva, voiced support for Iran’s nuclear policy, stating that the country’s 60% uranium enrichment was a response to illegal sanctions.

Ulyanov made the remarks in response to a post on X (formerly Twitter), which questioned why Tucker Carlson, an American journalist who recently interviewed the president of Iran, didn’t ask Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian about the reason for the high-level enrichment.

In his reply, Ulyanov wrote, "Don’t you think that 60% enrichment is simply a countermeasure, a response to illegitimate sanctions and aggressive pressure?"

"It seems to be a quite effective countermeasure which makes those, who try to put pressure on Iran, rather nervous," he added.
