Khaberni - The Iranian ambassador to Pakistan denied on Wednesday any negotiations between Washington and Tehran, after US President Donald Trump spoke about progress in the diplomatic efforts aimed at ending the war.
Ambassador Reza Amiri Moghaddam said, "We also heard such details through the media, but according to my information and contrary to Trump's claims, no direct or indirect negotiations have taken place between the two countries," adding that "it is natural for friendly countries to always engage in consultations with both sides to put an end to this illegitimate aggression."
The United States and Israel began airstrikes on Iran on February 28 after declaring that they had not made sufficient progress in the talks aimed at ending Iran's nuclear program, contrary to what Oman, which was acting as a mediator, reported about significant progress. The United States launched attacks on Iranian nuclear facilities in June 2025.
Since the beginning of the war at the end of February, Iran has launched attacks on countries and bombed the energy infrastructure in the Gulf, effectively closing the Strait of Hormuz, through which a fifth of the world's oil and liquefied natural gas production passes.
