Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has defended Iran’s right to enrich uranium “for peaceful purposes” amid pressure on Tehran from the Trump administration, Al Jazeera reports.

“Iran, like any other member of the Non-Proliferation Agreement, has the full right to enrich uranium for peaceful purposes,” Lavrov says during a news conference in Moscow.

He adds that Moscow will not interfere in the negotiation process between Washington and Tehran.

“We will support any resolutions agreed upon and accepted by the negotiating parties themselves. In this case, the United States and the Islamic Republic of Iran,” Lavrov says, as reported by Russia’s Interfax news agency.
