Senior Iranian diplomat Abbas Araghchi has denied that Tehran has agreed to resume nuclear negotiations with the United States, pushing back against recent claims by U.S. President Donald Trump.
“Don’t take these statements seriously. No agreement has been reached for negotiations with the United States. In fact, there hasn’t even been a discussion,” Araghchi said on Iranian state television.
He said the United States and Israel — with the support of some European countries — had attempted to undermine Iran’s position. “A nuclear-armed superpower and a nuclear-armed regime mobilised to pressure the Iranian people and end a 50-year struggle. They failed,” he said.
Asked about Trump’s claim that talks would begin next week, Araghchi replied: “There is no agreement, no meeting scheduled, and no communication on the matter.”
On the new Iranian law that limits cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), Araghchi said the legislation — approved by the Guardian Council — is now binding. He also criticised IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi’s latest report, saying it “paved the way for further tensions” and was “neither accurate nor fair.”
His remarks come amid continued uncertainty over the possibility of renewed diplomacy between Iran and the United States following weeks of military and nuclear tensions.
