Iran open to negotiation: Foreign Minister
Iran has never ignored the option of negotiations, the foreign minister stated, adding that the main principle is that the negotiations need to be held in a dignified and fair manner, respect the rights of the Iranian people, and observe Iran’s red lines.
Any fresh negotiations should not be a waste of time, not be held for another round of negotiations, and not turn into a process of attrition either, he said.
Iran has never left the negotiating table since it has always been confident about the peaceful nature of its nuclear program, Araqchi added.
The foreign minister said Iran’s consistent stance, according to which the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) was negotiated, has been negotiations that would build trust on Tehran’s nuclear program in exchange for the removal of sanctions.
He reminded the other sides that force, pressures and sanctions against Iran will get nowhere, saying, “The more they impose sanctions and pressures on Iran, the more Iran will show resistance.”
