Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian stated that Tehran will not engage in any negotiations under pressure, threats, or sanctions. He made the remarks during a conversation with Pakistan’s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, according to Iran’s state news agency IRNA.

Pezeshkian noted that diplomatic processes face various obstacles that complicate dialogue. He emphasized that as long as the United States continues its hostile actions and strategic pressure, rebuilding trust and advancing dialogue will face serious challenges.

The statement reflects Iran’s firm stance on maintaining independence in its diplomatic decisions amid ongoing tensions with the United States and regional complexities.
