Iran may end nuclear weapons ban if sanctions reimposed: Minister

Iran's Foreign Minister—Seyed Abbas Araghchi—has warned that the country could reconsider its ban on possessing nuclear weapons if Western nations go ahead with reimposing United Nations sanctions. Speaking in an interview, Araghchi revealed that while Iran has the capability to develop nuclear weapons—they currently don't form part of its security strategy. This comes after European nations moved a censure motion against Iran at the International Atomic Energy Agency, accusing it of non-cooperation and building a uranium stockpile without peaceful intent.
