Tehran will only negotiate with the US when conditions are met

Iran announced that it will only negotiate with the United States when its conditions are met, thus reacting to the statements by President Donald Trump, who on Monday stated he was willing to dialogue with Tehran. The Secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, Mohsen Rezaei, stressed that "there will be no negotiations until Iran's conditions are met," also calling on people not to be distracted by Washington's "contradictory signals." The context of this tension dates back to the Islamabad memorandum, signed in June between Tehran and Washington, which provided for the cessation of hostilities and the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, whose blockade was broken by the US in July after Iranian attacks on oil tankers.
