Iran Rules Out Immediate Talks With U.S. Despite Diplomatic Correspondence

Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi clarified on Saturday that Iran has no current plans to engage in discussions with American officials. He dismissed reports suggesting otherwise as speculative media assumptions.

The Foreign Minister confirmed that a letter from U.S. Vice President J. D. Vance was received and reviewed during high-level government meetings. While he characterized the U.S. attempt to initiate dialogue as a potential positive step, he warned that any attempt to create division would be considered a mistake.

Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei has issued instructions to military commanders to ensure that any threats against the country are met with immediate and geographically unrestricted responses. Araghchi noted that Iran is currently consulting with mediators regarding its conditions for future engagement.
