Kabul 24<\/a>: Vance reiterated that Washington\u2019s primary objective in the confrontation with Tehran remains preventing Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons. Referencing US strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities in June 2025, Vance asserted that key enrichment capabilities were destroyed and emphasized that the United States will ensure Iran cannot rebuild its nuclear capacity. He noted that surrounding developments\u2014including disruptions to international shipping and retaliatory responses\u2014remain secondary to the central imperative of nuclear non-proliferation.<\/p>\nThe Vice President stressed that if Tehran seeks to demonstrate a genuine commitment against nuclear weapons development, it must take meaningful action to reduce its enrichment levels. Questioning the necessity of uranium enriched to 60% purity for civilian purposes, Vance stated that halting high-level enrichment serves as an essential baseline condition for any lasting resolution. He also pointed to the breakdown of the June 2026 understanding following incidents in the Strait of Hormuz, highlighting internal inconsistency in Iran’s decision-making process.<\/p>\n
Vance\u2019s remarks illustrate a dual-track approach by the White House. By maintaining open diplomatic channels with Iran\u2019s elected executive leadership, Washington preserves a path toward a negotiated resolution. Concurrently, by publicly questioning the scope of their decision-making authority, the US applies political leverage on Tehran’s broader governance structure. Conditioning de-escalation on a concrete reduction in 60% uranium enrichment underscores Washington’s intent to rollback Iran’s technical nuclear baseline before entering broader negotiations to end hostilities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
