Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei on Wednesday rejected holding negotiations with the United States over a nuclear deal, as a letter was delivered from U.S. President Donald Trump calling for such talks.
Iranian Foregn Minister Abbas Araghchi has confirmed the receipt of a letter written by U.S. President Donald Trump, which was delivered by Anwar Gargash, the diplomatic adviser to the President of the United Arab Emirates.
This afternoon, I welcomed Mr. Anwar Gargash, the diplomatic adviser to the president of the United Arab Emirates. Along with discussions on mutual and regional matters, we also received a letter from the President of the United States,” the foreign minister stated on Wednesday.
"We will NOT engage in negotiations under pressure or intimidation. We will NOT even consider it, regardless of the topic. Negotiation is about dialogue, not bullying or issuing ultimatums," Iranian Foreign Minister posted on Platform X.
He further stated that Iran was in discussions with the E3, as well as separately with Russia and China, regarding nuclear matters. "The goal is to find ways to build greater trust and transparency in our nuclear energy program in exchange for the removal of unlawful sanctions," Araghchi added.
Araghchi also noted that the administration of President Masoud Pezeshkian was focused on strengthening ties with regional and neighboring countries. Gargash emphasized the significance of maintaining strong relations and continuous dialogue between the UAE and Iran to promote shared interests. He further stated that Abu Dhabi was ready to enhance cooperation with Tehran across various sectors.
