Madrid 13 (Europa Press) –
Iran Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi, confirmed on Wednesday the reception of the letter written by the president of the United States, Donald Trump, for the Iranian supreme leader, Ayatolá Ali Jamenei, in which he urges him to open negotiations on the nuclear program and threatens a military action if there are no diplomatic advances.
“This afternoon I have received the diplomatic advisor from the president of the United Arab Emirates (EAU) Anwar Grash. In addition to talking about bilateral relations and regional issues, I have also received the letter from the president of the United States,” he explained through his profile on the Instagram social network, where he has published a video of the meeting.
Hours before, Araqchi said that the letter had not reached them “yet” and that actions were being carried out so that the special envoy of a country in the region was delivered to the authorities. He also reiterated that the Iranian nuclear program has only peaceful ends and added that Tehran “has always been open to negotiations, but these conversations must be fair and respectful.”
“Although the United States withdrew a long ago from the agreement-in reference to the unilateral abandonment of the Trump pact in 2018, we continue in conversations with the three European countries-united reign, France and Germany-. Two weeks signers of the historic 2015 agreement.
Araqchi’s words have arrived just a few hours after Iran’s president, Masud Peseshkian, rejected Trump’s threats on his nuclear program, after the possibility of adopting military measures in case there is no new agreement on the issue through the diplomatic route. “When you threaten me, I don’t want to negotiate with you. Do what you want,” said Pe fishhkian.
In addition, Jamenei has affirmed during the day that re -negotiating a possible nuclear agreement with the United States government “will only carry more hard sanctions” against Tehran, while describing the latest Washington movements as a “deception.”
Trump unilaterally withdrew in 2018 to the United States of the historic nuclear agreement signed with Iran three years before and imposed a battery of sanctions against Tehran that led the country to reduce their commitments to the pact until Washington’s return to the fulfillment of their clauses. Since his return to the White House, he has re -activated a wide battery of sanctions, something criticized by the Iranian government.
