Iran’s President Reiterates Nuclear Stance and Opens Doors for U.S. Investments

In a recent statement, Iran’s President Masoud Pezeshkian reassured the global community that Iran is not pursuing nuclear weapons. This assertion comes just before planned discussions between Tehran and the United States. Interestingly, Pezeshkian also hinted at the possibility of welcoming direct investments from American companies into Iran, should the two nations successfully negotiate a deal.

A Shift in Iran’s Economic Strategy

Pezeshkian’s remarks mark a significant shift from Iran’s previous economic policies post-2015 nuclear agreement, where the nation had shown interest in purchasing American aircraft but effectively kept U.S. businesses from entering the Iranian market. “His excellency has no opposition to investment by American investors in Iran,” Pezeshkian stated in a speech in Tehran, referencing Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. He further encouraged, “American investors: Come and invest.”

Potential Appeal to U.S. Interests

This new business-friendly posture could potentially attract the attention of President Donald Trump, who, during his first term, pulled the United States out of Iran’s nuclear deal and has been advocating for a new, more stringent agreement. Pezeshkian, who has promoted Western engagement since his election, noted that the upcoming discussions in Oman between Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi and U.S. Mideast envoy Steve Witkoff would be “indirectly” conducted, despite Trump’s indication of direct negotiations—a prospect Tehran has not dismissed post-initial talks.

Pezeshkian emphasized, “We are not after a nuclear bomb. You (in the West) have verified it 100 times. Do it 1,000 times again.” This statement underlines Iran’s stance on its nuclear program amidst ongoing international scrutiny and negotiations.
