An Iranian official warns Trump not to be distracted by his conflicting signals and stresses that he will not negotiate without meeting the conditions

The Iranian official responded to President Trump in a post on the “X” platform, warning against being distracted by the contradiction in the US President’s signals, which ranged between refusal to negotiate and readiness for dialogue.

Rezaei stressed what he described as “the change in the equations related to oil and the straits, and that confusion in trying to control the consequences will not prevent what is coming,” and stressed that there is no negotiation without achieving the Iranian conditions.

This response comes in the wake of US President Donald Trump's announcement yesterday that Iran wants to conclude a deal with the United States quickly and strongly, and he announced that he will decide whether Washington will participate in these negotiations or not.

Trump wrote on the Truth Social platform: “The failed state of Iran wants to conclude a deal quickly and badly, and I will determine whether the United States of America chooses to participate or not, a concept we are open to.”

The US President did not provide any additional details about the nature or conditions of the proposed deal, and there was no immediate comment from Tehran on these statements at first. Trump said last Sunday that Tehran wants to conclude an agreement at any cost, but he will not sign a bad deal.

For his part, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian confirmed in a post that Iran will not surrender, and warned that the Americans should confront Iranian forces and not civilian infrastructure if they are warriors.
