Iran has announced that it is not in a hurry to resume nuclear negotiations with the United States, according to Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi.

Araghchi stated that Iran is open to dialogue, but only if the discussions are based on mutual respect and balanced interests.

He revealed that the U.S. has laid out several conditions for the talks, including direct negotiations, zero uranium enrichment, and limitations on Iran’s missile stockpile.

However, Iran considers these demands illogical and unfair, arguing that they undermine the principle of equitable diplomacy.

The statement comes amid heightened tensions following a U.S. airstrike on an Iranian nuclear facility, which caused significant infrastructure damage.

Oman has reportedly taken the lead in facilitating a ceasefire between the two nations, aiming to de-escalate the situation and reopen diplomatic channels.
