US President Donald Trump claimed that Washington intended to hold talks with Iran next week, but Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi stated Thursday in a state TV broadcast that Iran presently had no plans to meet with the US. After Israel and the US attacked Iran’s nuclear facilities during five prior rounds of discussions, the Iranian foreign minister stated Tehran was evaluating whether talks with the US were in its best interests.
Iran claims its nuclear program is only intended for civilian use, but the US and Israel claim the strikes were intended to stop Iran from developing nuclear weapons. Tehran maintains that its program is solely for civilian use, despite the US and Israel maintaining that the assaults were meant to curtail Iran’s potential for nuclear weapons.
The damage to the nuclear installations “were not little,” according to Araqchi, and the competent authorities were determining the new facts about Iran’s nuclear program, which he claimed will guide Iran’s future diplomatic approach. The US and Iran will meet “next week,” according to President Trump, who called the recent Pentagon raids on Iranian nuclear targets a success during a NATO conference in The Hague on Wednesday. On Thursday, the White House retracted that assertion, though.
