Iran’s Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmail Baghaei stated that the country is not currently holding any discussions with the United States regarding its nuclear program. He said Iran knows when to take necessary steps on the issue but emphasized that the government’s immediate priority is ending the ongoing war.

Baghaei accused the United States of repeatedly violating ceasefire agreements, including on the morning of his statement. He added that Iran would take all measures it deems necessary to protect its national security. His remarks came after the United States admitted to carrying out strikes on Iranian radar and drone sites in Goruk city and Qeshm Island over the weekend, which Washington described as acts of self-defense.

The exchange underscores continuing tensions between Tehran and Washington, with no sign of renewed diplomatic engagement on nuclear matters while military confrontations persist.
