Iran's Supreme National Security Council Secretary, Ali Shamkhani, stated that “the remarks made by the U.S. National Security Adviser, in which he denied Iran’s right to enrich uranium, are a symbol of the non-commitment, unilateralism and ignorance of all international norms and lack any legal value or credibility”. He argued that “such remarks show that Iran’s measure to reduce its nuclear commitments is the only way to face a country that does not accept to meet any commitments”.
