According to RIA Novosti on June 28, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Aragchi said on social network X that US President Donald Trump should abandon his disrespectful tone towards Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, if he sincerely wants to make a deal with Tehran.
“If President Trump sincerely wishes to conclude a deal, he should abandon his disrespectful and unacceptable tone towards Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and stop hurting millions of his true believers,” Aragchi wrote.
Earlier, at a press conference after the NATO Summit in The Hague, President Donald Trump spoke about upcoming negotiations between US and Iranian representatives next week. The US President noted that as a result of the negotiations, an agreement could be signed, although for him it was "not necessary".
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Aragchi said on June 26 that Iran has not yet decided whether to hold a new round of talks with the United States, the issue is being resolved.
Meanwhile, US media reported that the Trump administration has discussed the possibility of providing Iran with access to up to $30 billion to build a civilian nuclear energy program, easing sanctions and unblocking billions of dollars in frozen Iranian funds, all part of an intensified effort to bring Tehran back to the negotiating table.
