Iran’s foreign ministry denies talks with US
Iran’s foreign ministry spokesperson denies holding any talks with the US during the past 24 days, shortly after President Donald Trump said the two sides had found “major points of agreement” in the past few days.
“Over the past few days, messages were received through some friendly countries indicating a US request for negotiations aimed at ending the war,” says foreign ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baqaei, according to the official IRNA news agency.
However, he “denied any negotiations or talks with the United States during the past 24 days of the imposed war.”
