Iran’s Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi just dropped a diplomatic bombshell 🧨: Nuclear negotiations with the U.S. will only restart when Tehran feels confident about Washington’s commitments. In an exclusive chat with CGTN, Araghchi compared the process to a high-stakes chess match ♟️ – Iran won’t make a move until it’s sure the rules won’t suddenly change.
The comments come as global powers watch closely 👀 for signs of progress on reviving the 2015 nuclear deal (JCPOA), which unraveled after the U.S. withdrew in 2018. Araghchi emphasized that trust remains the ultimate currency 💸 in these negotiations, hinting at lingering skepticism about American guarantees.
Young politicos and foreign policy buffs are calling this a classic case of ‘show, don’t tell’ diplomacy 📜. With regional tensions simmering and energy markets on edge ⚡, all eyes are now on whether Washington can craft proposals convincing enough to bring Iran back to the table.
