Iran's FM Sees Diplomacy Possible if US Changes Approach; Trump Rules Out TalksPreviousNext

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi stated that renewed diplomacy with the US is possible if Washington abandons coercion and builds trust, emphasizing respectful dialogue and acknowledgment of Iran's rights. He also reported productive talks with Qatari leaders. Meanwhile, US President Donald Trump ruled out immediate negotiations, citing Iran's limited military and economic capabilities, and warned that US military operations against Iran might continue despite the Strait of Hormuz remaining open.
