The Supreme Leader, addressing nuclear scientists on Iran Nuclear Technology Day, has said that research and development activities will slow down during the talks with the 5+1 Powers on a comprehensive deal.
The discussions, underway in Geneva, have considered whether Iran must cease work on the under-construction Arak heavy-water reactor, limit development and number of uranium enrichment centrifuges, and suspend the enrichment process at the Fordoo plant.
Nuclear achievements are not going to stop & no one has the right to trade them and no one will do so.

Khamenei warned that the US might continue to impose sanctions on Iran, even with the prospect of a nuclear agreement:
