Iran has decisively turned down a second round of peace negotiations with the United States, citing excessive demands from Washington and ongoing military tensions in the region. Iranian officials express frustration over what they perceive as U.S. threats, particularly regarding the enforcement of maritime order in the Strait of Hormuz. Despite claims of progress in earlier discussions, significant gaps remain between the two sides, with Iran stating that it currently sees no prospect for successful talks. The Iranian state media reports that there are no plans to send a negotiating delegation to Pakistan, where U.S. officials will be meeting, as concerns about U.S. military actions loom large. This rejection follows a series of provocative statements from U.S. President Trump, who has threatened to target Iranian infrastructure if diplomatic resolutions are not achieved.
