Iran’s Khamenei Spurns ‘Arrogant’ US Nuclear-Deal Proposal

Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei criticized a US proposal for a nuclear deal and called American officials “arrogant” for expecting the Islamic Republic to cease uranium enrichment.

Iran and the US have been engaged in negotiations since April in a bid to end a tense, years-long standoff over Tehran’s nuclear program and have so far had five rounds of talks mediated by Oman.
