Iran has thrown cold water on nuclear negotiations with the U.S., calling them "meaningless" after Israel launched its largest-ever military strike against Iranian targets this week. The fiery rhetoric comes as tensions reach boiling point in the Middle East. 🔥
"You Can't Negotiate With a Knife at Your Back"
Iran's Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei accused Washington of greenlighting the attacks, telling state media: "The Zionist regime targeted Iranian territory with U.S. permission. How can we talk peace with those holding matches near gasoline?" ⚠️
Diplomatic Domino Effect
The sixth round of nuclear talks – scheduled for Sunday in Oman – now hangs in the balance. While U.S. officials denied involvement in the strikes, they urged Tehran to "return to the negotiating table." Meanwhile, former U.S. President Donald Trump confirmed to Reuters that his administration knew about Israel's plans but still saw "room for a deal." 🤝💔
Iran maintains its nuclear program is strictly peaceful, but the latest escalation threatens to derail years of delicate diplomacy. With regional tensions hotter than a TikTok trend, all eyes are on whether these talks will become another casualty of Middle East politics. 👀🌐
