French President Emmanuel Macron has said he received a call from his Iranian counterpart Masoud Pezeshkian and that they had agreed to accelerate negotiations between European powers and Iran over its contested nuclear programme, Reuters reports.

“I am demanding: Iran must never acquire nuclear weapons, and it is up to it to provide every assurance that its intentions are peaceful,” Macron said on social media X.

“I am convinced that there is a way out of the war and to avoid greater dangers.”
