WANA (May 26) – A group of Iranian students gathered outside the Shahid Ahmadi-Roshan Nuclear Facility in Natanz to declare their firm support for Iran’s uranium enrichment program and its legitimate nuclear rights.

 

During the rally, students stated: “No foreign power has the right to set limits on our technological progress. How can arrogant powers possessing thousands of nuclear warheads threaten our scientific advancement?”

They stressed that no agreement is acceptable at the cost of retreating from enrichment rights and national dignity. The full nuclear fuel cycle, they said, is a legitimate and inherent right of the Iranian nation. Any backtracking in this path is a betrayal of the blood of those who sacrificed their lives for self-reliance and a surrender to enemy plans.

 

The demonstrators added: “American officials have misunderstood the Iranian people. Nuclear energy benefits our country, especially in addressing challenges like energy imbalance. Who gave the U.S. the right to decide what we can and cannot do? The real global threat is the U.S. itself. Negotiators must remember that blood has been shed for the enrichment program they are negotiating over. We stand behind the negotiating team and, God willing, they will confront the Great Satan and defend the rights of the Iranian nation.”

It’s Not Just About Nuclear Energy — It’s About Rejecting the Monopoly on Knowledge

The students emphasized: “We are here today to safeguard Iran’s scientific future — not for political games, but for national interests. At a time when so-called peace advocates proudly unveil new atomic bombs, they speak to us in the language of threat and humiliation, demanding that we halt our nuclear progress. Our issue is not only nuclear energy — it is the rejection of scientific monopoly. They act as though they are the inheritors of science and we are bound to obey.”

 

It’s worth noting that after students in Qom, Bushehr, Karaj, and Tehran, this time it was students from Isfahan who formed a human chain in front of the Shahid Ahmadi-Roshan enrichment complex in Natanz.
