Iran considers enriched uranium a national asset and will not agree to its removal from the country, Secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council Mohsen Rezaei said in an interview with Al Mayadeen.

"We will not allow any part of the enriched nuclear material to be removed from Iran," Rezaei emphasized.

According to him, enriched uranium is a national asset of the country and is intended for domestic needs.

Rezaei noted that, in response to Russia's initiative on the issue, Tehran had informed Moscow in advance of its decision to keep enriched uranium within the country's territory.
