Iran has denied reports of any talks with the United States and declared that it will continue fighting until achieving what it calls 'complete victory.' The statement came from the country’s top military command on Monday, according to Iran’s state television, quoting Major General Ali Abdollahi Aliabadi of the Khatam-al Anbia Central Headquarters. He said Iran’s armed forces remain proud, victorious, and steadfast in defending the nation’s integrity.

The declaration followed US President Donald Trump’s claim that discussions were underway between Tehran and Washington. Iran has consistently denied engaging in any negotiations with the United States, though its foreign minister continues to maintain contact with counterparts in other regional countries. General Aliabadi did not clarify what 'complete victory' specifically means, but the statement is seen as a warning against making concessions in any potential talks.

Earlier, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi stated that the ongoing war could only end if Iran received assurances that no further attacks would be carried out against it, according to the Associated Press.
