The Supreme Leader of Iran gave a positive assessment to the first round of negotiations with the United States

Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei gave a positive assessment after holding the first round of talks with the United States in Oman. The official portal of the Supreme Leader informed about this on April 15.

"In the early stages, the country's decision to enter into negotiations worked well, but even after that, it is necessary to act carefully, while the red lines for us and for the opposite side are outlined very clearly," Khamenei said.

According to him, negotiations can lead to both positive and negative consequences. That is why, in his opinion, it is necessary to focus on the internal capabilities of the country.

Khamenei also mentioned a way to deal with sanctions. He believes that investing in production will help in this matter.

"It is not in our hands to lift the sanctions, but it is in our power to neutralize them, and there are many ways and appropriate internal capabilities for this, and if this goal is achieved, the country will become invulnerable to sanctions," he stressed.
