Gaps over Iran's nuclear work remain, missile programme not negotiable with US, senior Iranian source says

Gaps over Iran's nuclear work remain, missile programme not negotiable with US, senior Iranian source says Differences over Iran's nuclear programme still remain, a senior Iranian source told Reuters on Monday, as Iran and the United States try to reach a lasting peace with the two-week ceasefire ending soon. The senior Iranian source said that Tehran's "defensive capabilities", including its missile programme, are not open to negotiation with the United States. "Continuation of the US blockade on the Strait of Hormuz undermines the peace talks," the source said.
