Muscat, February 6 (Xinhua) — Iran rejected the demand for "zero uranium enrichment" during indirect talks with the United States held in Muscat, the Omani capital, the Iranian news agency Mehr reported on Friday.

According to the news agency, the parties focused on the issue of “diluting” (reducing the enrichment level) of existing Iranian uranium reserves.

It is indicated that the atmosphere of the negotiations was “more serious” than in previous rounds of dialogue between the parties.

Meanwhile, Iran's state-run IRIB TV reported on Friday that the Muscat talks had been concluded "for now" and both delegations could return to their countries.

Earlier in the day, the channel reported that the two sides had exchanged several messages through Omani Foreign Minister Badr bin Hamad bin Hamoud al-Busaidi, and that talks could continue in the coming days.

A new round of indirect talks began earlier on Friday. The Iranian delegation was led by Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi, and the American delegation was led by US Special Presidential Envoy Steven Witkoff.

The talks took place against a backdrop of heightened regional tensions, particularly between Washington and Tehran, including the recent buildup of the United States' military presence in the Middle East and Iran's increased preparations for a potential escalation.

Beijing, February 6 (Xinhua) — China will implement a series of measures to promote the development of services consumption, the Ministry of Commerce announced at a press conference on Friday.

Last week, the General Office of the State Council of China released a work plan outlining measures to optimize and expand service supply, cultivate new growth points for service consumption, and promote improved service quality for the benefit of the public.

As Kong Dejun, head of the Ministry of Commerce's Department of Trade in Services and Commercial Services, noted, the plan was adopted against the backdrop of the increasingly important role of service consumption as a key driver of high-quality economic development.

From 2020 to 2025, China's per capita service expenditure grew at an average annual rate of 8.5 percent, demonstrating strong growth momentum. The share of service expenditure in total per capita consumer expenditure increased by 3.5 percentage points, reaching 46.1 percent in 2025.

At the same press conference, Vice Minister of Commerce Yan Dong emphasized China's ongoing efforts to attract and expand inbound consumption, noting that the expansion of the list of countries whose citizens are granted visa-free entry to China and the optimization of exit tax refunds have further boosted foreign tourists' enthusiasm for traveling and shopping in China.

The Ministry of Commerce will develop measures to promote the export of tourism services and expand inbound consumption, while simultaneously promoting pilot programs to create an internationalized consumer environment, Yan Dong said.

He added that efforts will also be made to increase the number of duty-free shops, further optimize tax refund services, and improve convenience for overseas visitors to attract more foreign tourists.
