Iranian President Pezeshkian: It is not meaningful to negotiate with the USA

According to the written statement made by the Iranian Presidency, Pezeshkian and Mirzoyan met in the capital Tehran.

In his statement at the meeting, Pezeshkian said, "Our problem with the USA is that war is imposed on us every time we sit at the table." He evaluated that the Washington administration attacked his country three times during the negotiations, which "shows that the USA is not pursuing dialogue and, on the contrary, intends to destroy Iran."

Stating that his country has proven its honesty regarding nuclear activities many times, Pezeshkiyan said that Iran is the country most inspected by the International Atomic Energy Agency, yet the USA puts pressure on Iran with "unfounded allegations".

Pezeshkian also noted that he expressed that they were open to inspection and dialogue on nuclear activities from the United Nations (UN) podium, but during each inspection, Iran's nuclear centers and scientists were detected and subjected to assassinations.

Stating that the USA did not account for the school attack in Minab and the 168 children who lost their lives in the attack and still talked about human rights, Pezeşkiyan said, "It is not meaningful to negotiate with the enemy (USA) who always organizes assassinations, imposes sanctions, puts pressure and breaks agreements, and our nation does not accept this." he said.
