Iranian President Hassan Rouhani appeared to shoot down the prospects of any negotiations with the Trump administration
Iranian President Hassan Rouhani said Tuesday that the "situation" between his nation and the United States is "not suitable" for diplomacy, apparently shooting down the prospects of any negotiations with the Trump administration.
Even as tensions between the two nations have escalated in recent weeks, President Donald Trump has hinted that negotiations with Tehran could be possible. But Rouhani said Tuesday that "resistance" is his country's only option for dealing with the punishing sanctions imposed by Washington.“Today’s situation is not suitable for talks and our choice is resistance only,” Rouhani said, according to the state-run news agency IRNA.
On Monday, Trump told reporters that there was "no indication that anything has happened or will happen" though he said any attack by Iran would be met with "great force."
