00:50 10.5.2026
Russian President Vladimir Putin repeated the Kremlin’s oft-stated offer to transport and store enriched uranium from Iran if it would help seal a deal to end the war in Iran.
Putin said Russia had transported enriched uranium from Iran once before, in 2015, and that Moscow was ready “to repeat this experience.”
The Russian leader said Iran, the US. and Israel had all had agreed to the transporting the uranium out of Iran. “But then the United States hardened its position and demanded that the uranium be transported exclusively to US territory. Iran then hardened its position,” he said.
Some US and other Western officials rejected earlier suggestions that Russia take possession of Iran’s uranium in light of the close relations between Moscow and Tehran.
