The media reported on Khamenei's ban on the export of enriched uranium from Iran
Iran's Supreme leader Mojtaba Khamenei has issued a directive banning the export of enriched uranium from the country. This was reported on May 21 by the Reuters news agency, citing sources.
"The supreme leader's directive and the consensus within the establishment is that stocks of enriched uranium should not leave the country," the source said.
It clarifies that the export of radioactive substances outside the country can increase Iran's vulnerability to new attacks from the United States and Israel in the future.
American leader Donald Trump announced on May 21 that the United States wants to export Iranian enriched uranium in order to most likely destroy it.
Al Hadath TV channel said on May 18 that Iran had expressed its readiness to transfer 400 kg of enriched uranium to Russia, not the United States. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi announced on May 15 that Tehran would hold additional consultations with Moscow on the fate of Iran's enriched uranium when the United States and the Islamic Republic return to discussing this issue.
