Iran Reaffirms Opposition to Second Round of US Peace Talks
Tehran has reiterated its refusal to engage in a second round of direct peace talks with the United States, according to statements released by the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Spokesman Esmail Baghaei, speaking at a press conference as reported by Mehr news agency and relayed by Telegrafi, stated that the regime currently has “no plan for the next round of negotiations.”
Baghaei cited what he described as concerning behavior from Washington, specifically the enforcement of a maritime blockade and alleged violations of a ceasefire in Lebanon. He asserted that these actions suggest a lack of seriousness regarding the diplomatic process.
“Iran would ‘take a suitable decision regarding the continuation of the negotiation process,’” Baghaei stated. The ministry’s position comes after a period of stalled discussions. The announcement underscores a continued impasse between the two nations.
Further details regarding Iran’s future approach to potential dialogue remain unclear, but the ministry’s stance indicates a firm rejection of a second round of talks at this time.
