Iran announces refusal to hold negotiations with US
Secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council Ali Larijani stated that Tehran will not hold negotiations with Washington.
As reported by Censor.NET, this was reported in a post on the X platform.
"We will not hold any negotiations with the United States," Larijani said.
He added that the American leader plunged the Middle East into chaos with his "empty hopes" and now fears "further losses among American troops."
"Trump has plunged the region into chaos by instilling 'false hopes' and now fears further losses among American servicemen. With his reckless actions, he has turned his self-proclaimed slogan 'America First' into 'Israel First' and sacrificed American soldiers for Israel’s pursuit of power," Larijani wrote.
According to him, with his "false statements," Trump is harming American military personnel and their families.
"Today, the Iranian people are defending themselves. The Iranian armed forces did not initiate an invasion," Larijani concluded.
