Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said Sunday that Tehran has not seen any positive attitude from the American side to pave the way for the restart of stalled nuclear talks.
“Negotiations are possible whenever Americans are ready for equitable negotiations for both sides,” Araghchi told reporters after a cabinet meeting on Sunday, adding that there is “no positive or constructive attitude” from the American side.
Iran and the US had held five rounds of Oman-mediated indirect nuclear talks before Israel attacked the Islamic republic in June, which effectively ended the negotiations, especially after US President Donald Trump decided to join Israel in striking Iran.
Washington on June 24 brokered a ceasefire to the 12-day war between Israel and Iran, and Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei later declared victory, claiming that Trump had exaggerated the destruction caused by US military strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities.
