"With Iran, they can't have a nuclear weapon," US President Donald Trump told reporters in the White House on Friday.
"And if they have a nuclear weapon, you'll all be very unhappy. You'll all be very unhappy because your life will be in great danger."
Iran's foreign minister Abbas Araghchi said the Russian leader has promised his country's relations with Tehran would not be impacted by Russia's relations with the United States.
"Russia–US relations have their own unique characteristics," Araghchi said during his visit to Moscow.
"What matters is that both the Russian President and Foreign Minister have assured us that their country’s relationship with Iran will not be influenced by any other country."
A Democratic senator has called on the Trump administration not to negotiate with Tehran and to provide Israel with whatever it needs to destroy the Islamic Republic's nuclear capabilities.
"The only purpose of Iran's nuclear program is to create weapons," said Senator John Fetterman in a post on X on Friday. "We can't allow that or negotiate with this regime."
The United States should "provide our comprehensive military support and whatever else Israel requires to destroy Iran's capabilities," the outspoken pro-Israel lawmaker added.
Fetterman made the remarks in reaction to an Axios report about a meeting between Trump's envoy Steve Witkoff and Israeli officials in Paris about nuclear talks with Iran, a second round of which is slated for Saturday in Rome.
