Deputy FM Denies Plan for Iran-US Talks
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – An Iranian deputy foreign minister rejected the claims of plans for a new round of negotiations between Iran and the US.
In comments after a meeting with the members of the Iranian Parliament’s National Security and Foreign Policy Commission on Sunday, Majid Takht Ravanchi denied the claims made by the American officials on a date for a fresh round of talks between Iran and the US.
The deputy foreign minister stated that no arrangement has been made for talks, saying the claims made by the US are untrue.
While the Zionist regime waged a war of aggression against Iran on June 13 and struck Iran’s military, nuclear and residential areas for 12 days, the US stepped in and conducted military attacks on three nuclear sites in Iran’s Natanz, Fordow and Isfahan on June 22.
The Iranian military forces conducted powerful counterattacks immediately after the aggression. The Islamic Revolution Guards Corps Aerospace Force carried out 22 waves of retaliatory missile strikes against the Zionist regime as part of Operation True Promise III that inflicted heavy losses on cities across the occupied territories.
Also, in response to the US attacks, Iranian armed forces launched a wave of missiles at al-Udeid air base in Qatar, the largest American military base in West Asia.
A ceasefire that came into force on June 24 has brought the fighting to a halt.
