Iranian FM states no plan to continue discussions with US
(MENAFN) Iran has stated that there is no current agreement or commitment in place to restart negotiations with the United States, according to comments made by Iranian Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi.
In a televised interview with the national broadcaster, Araghchi explained that while the idea of renewing talks was being considered, any decision would be based solely on safeguarding Iran's national interests.
He also acknowledged that the recent 12-day conflict with Israel had resulted in "serious" damage, noting that specialists from the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran were carrying out a thorough evaluation of the situation.
On the same day, the White House Press Secretary stated that there were no scheduled meetings between Washington and Tehran, a day after U.S. President Trump had publicly claimed that talks would take place "next week."
In a separate development, Iran’s Constitutional Council officially endorsed a bill passed by parliament to halt the country’s cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). The council’s spokesperson, Hadi Tahan Nazif, confirmed during a televised appearance that the legislation aligns with Iran’s legal and religious frameworks.
Following the council’s approval, Iran's Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf announced that the measure had been forwarded to the government to begin implementation.
