Iran has firmly rejected any possibility of negotiations with the United States, countering recent claims from Washington that discussions were underway between the two sides, according to Iran\u2019s official news agency.<\/p>\n
Ebrahim Zolfaghari, spokesman for Iran\u2019s Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters, dismissed U.S. President Donald Trump\u2019s assertion that Tehran was engaged in talks aimed at reaching a settlement.<\/p>\n
He stated that if the United States, which he described as a global superpower, had the ability to resolve its challenges, it would have done so already. He further alleged that Washington was attempting to portray \u201cdefeat as agreement,\u201d adding that U.S. strategic influence in the region had weakened significantly.<\/p>\n
Zolfaghari said the United States was effectively \u201cnegotiating with itself\u201d due to internal divisions, warning that stability in West Asia would remain elusive for Washington until it abandoned what he called hostile intentions toward Iran.<\/p>\n
He emphasized that any return to regional normalcy would depend on Iran\u2019s position, stating that peace would only be possible if the United States fully renounced actions against the Iranian nation.<\/p>\n
The remarks come after President Trump claimed on Monday that Washington and Tehran had held talks and reached \u201cmajor points of agreement.\u201d However, Iranian officials have consistently denied any ongoing negotiations with the United States.<\/p>\n
Earlier reports in international media, including The New York Times and Israel\u2019s Channel 12, suggested that a 15-point ceasefire proposal had been delivered to Iran. Tehran has rejected these claims.<\/p>\n
The exchange of statements comes amid heightened regional tensions following reported military confrontations involving Iran, the United States, and Israel in recent weeks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
