Iran could dilute 60% enriched uranium if all sanctions lifted, nuclear chief says

Feb 9, 2026, 12:24 GMT+0

Mohammad Eslami, head of Iran’s Atomic Energy Organization, said Tehran could consider diluting its stockpile of uranium enriched to 60% if all sanctions were lifted in return, state media reported.

Eslami said the issue “depends on whether they lift all sanctions or not,” adding that any such step would be tied to guarantees on Iran’s rights.

“The export of uranium is not on the agenda,” he said, adding that suggestions attributed to other countries were “speculation” circulating in media content produced by pressure groups.
