Iran Rejects Resuming Nuclear Talks, Citing US Violations of Ceasefire Agreement

The Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson announced that Iran will not resume diplomatic negotiations following the expiration of the 60-day ceasefire period outlined in the memorandum of understanding between Iran and the United States. The spokesperson stated that the 60-day period was null from the start due to American violations, and Iran refuses to engage in talks under threat or pressure. The memorandum had set a 60-day timeframe for discussions on US sanctions against Iran and the nuclear issue, but the US allegedly breached the agreement on June 28, shortly after signing. Consequently, no concrete negotiations have taken place, and Iran maintains it will not negotiate under duress or military threat.
