Axios learned about Iran's condition for returning to negotiations with the United States

Iran is ready to return to negotiations with the United States on its nuclear program, but first it wants to be sure that no new American strikes will follow. This was announced on July 23 by Deputy Foreign Minister of the Islamic Republic Kazem Gharibabadi.

"Last month, American officials discussed the dates of future talks with Tehran, while coordinating military plans with Israel. Although Tehran knows that it needs to negotiate with the United States in order to achieve the lifting of sanctions and avoid new ones, we are bluntly saying that we do not trust the United States," the Axios portal quotes him as saying.

It is noted that distrust is one of the reasons why Iran is currently refusing to resume dialogue with the United States.
