The Supreme Leader of Iran rejected Trump’s proposal to resume nuclear negotiations.

Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, the Supreme Leader of Iran, rejected Donald Trump’s proposal to resume negotiations, stating that US claims about destroying Iran’s nuclear potential are not true.

Nuclear Tension

Tehran and Washington held five rounds of indirect talks, which ended with a 12-day war between Iran and Israel. During the conflict, Israel and the US struck Iranian nuclear facilities, reports Reuters.

Khamenei expressed skepticism about Trump’s statements, noting that “if a deal is accompanied by coercion, it is not a deal but an imposition.”

Political Statements

Last week, Trump spoke in the Israeli parliament, expressing hope for a “peaceful agreement” with Tehran after the truce in Gaza. However, Khamenei reacted to this with irony, emphasizing that US interventions in Iran’s affairs are inappropriate.

Iran’s Reaction

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian warned that the actions of the Trump administration could destabilize the region. He noted that “the path they have taken will ignite a fire throughout the region.”

These statements highlight the complexity of relations between the countries and point to deep contradictions that continue to affect international politics.
