President Rouhani maintained that Iran’s atomic energy agency “has shown in recent months what capabilities it has by enriching 20 per cent and 60 per cent in a short time… if we need it one day, and our reactors needs 90 per cent enrichment, we can do it and we can do anything within the framework of peaceful activities”. Referring to internal debates regarding the Vienna talks, Rouhani contended that “they took away the opportunity to reach an agreement from this government. We deeply regret missing this opportunity”.
