Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has drawn a red line over its ballistic missile program, rejecting US demands to negotiate on the issue and further dimming prospects for a breakthrough deal between the two countries. This stance is seen as a major hurdle to US efforts to secure a commitment from Iran that it will not use ballistic missiles to threaten other nations or regions. The move comes amid ongoing talks in Vienna aimed at reviving the 2015 nuclear deal.
