Iran dismisses nuclear talks under threats: Leader

Ayatollah Khamenei dismissed recent US military threats against Iran and said the Islamic Republic will not leave any acts of aggression unanswered.

Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei says Iran does not approve of negotiations over its nuclear program “under the specter of threats”.

Addressing a number of teachers in Tehran on Wednesday, Ayatollah Khamenei dismissed recent US military threats against Iran and said the Islamic Republic will not leave any acts of aggression unanswered.

Ayatollah Khamenei added the US need for nuclear talks is not any less than Iran’s, if not more.

The Leader urged the Iranian negotiating delegation to observe the country’s red lines and not to cave in to the opposite side’s imposition of ideas, humiliation or threats in the course of the talks.
