Iran denies agreeing to second round of talks, cites ‘Washington’s excessive demands’
Iran has denied it agreed to participate in a second round of peace talks, which the US claimed was scheduled for tomorrow.
The official IRNA news agency has criticised “Washington’s excessive demands, unrealistic expectations, constant shifts in stance, repeated contradictions, and the ongoing naval blockade, which it considers a breach of the ceasefire”.
“The published news about the second round of negotiations in Islamabad is not true”, it added, saying that “The news published by the United States is their media game and part of the ‘blame game’ to pressure Iran.”
