US Vice President JD Vance says that talks on Iran’s nuclear program are heading in the right direction, saying Tehran can have civil nuclear power but not enrichment that can lead to atomic weapons.
“We’re on the right pathway,” Vance tells the Munich Leaders Meeting in Washington, describing the talks as “so far, so good.”
“We don’t care if people want nuclear power. We’re fine with that, but you can’t have the kind of enrichment program that allows you to get to a nuclear weapon, and that’s where we draw the line,” he says.
