Foreign ministry spokesman: Iran will never accept diplomacy based on imposing dictates and blackmail

Iran ·

Foreign ministry spokesman Ismail Baghaei said that understanding the deep roots of the confrontation between the United States and Iran does not mean abandoning political engagement. He added that diplomacy, alongside defensive tools, remains a necessary means of protecting national interests.

Iran and the United States have had no diplomatic relations since 1980 and have been in a long-running standoff over Iran's nuclear programme and its role in the region.
