Iran Accuses U.S. of Coordinating With Israel and Endangering Nuclear Talks
Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei said this morning, Monday, that the renewal of the war with Israel is jeopardizing negotiations toward a nuclear agreement with the United States.
"The recent events certainly increase suspicion," Baghaei said. "We are exchanging messages with the Americans in an atmosphere of very great suspicion. There is no doubt that the actions of the Zionist regime in the region cannot be separated from American policy, and the events of the last 24 hours will only complicate the chaotic situation in the diplomatic process."
Baghaei blamed the escalation on the United States, saying it is aiding Israel and coordinating with it politically and militarily. "And for that reason, the United States bears responsibility for the ceasefire violations, and it will bear the consequences," he stressed.
Meanwhile, the Revolutionary Guards threatened to attack energy infrastructure throughout the Persian Gulf, not only in Israel, if Israel attacks Iran's energy infrastructure again.
Earlier today, the IDF said the Air Force had completed a broad strike against strategic defense systems in Iran. According to the military statement, dozens of fighter jets took part in the strike, directed by the Intelligence Directorate.
Last night, Iran began launching missiles toward various areas across the country. The Iranians said they launched the attack in response to the IDF strike in Beirut's Dahieh yesterday afternoon.
U.S. President Donald Trump told Kan News yesterday that Israel had "responded enough and does not need to respond any further." Before Israel began striking in Iran overnight, Trump told Axios that he would tell Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu not to attack.
More on this, in the United States they reported an agreement with Iran; Israel has not yet responded. A political source: Trump promised he would stand by his demand to dismantle the nuclear program.
