Iran is prepared to remove its highly enriched uranium from the country on the condition that it is transferred to China, Al Arabiya reported, citing unnamed senior officials.

“Iran is ready to remove highly enriched uranium from its territory. Iran demands that it be handed over to China,” informed sources told the outlet.

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said on May 25 that the United States has a good chance of reaching a temporary agreement with Iran on the nuclear issue.

Earlier, The Washington Post reported that the Iran-US framework agreement, which has not yet been confirmed by Tehran, envisages that Iran would give up its stockpile of highly enriched uranium.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
