WASHINGTON – U.S. officials confirmed Monday that no new negotiations with Iran are planned, despite recent remarks from President Trump. These statements contradict earlier reports suggesting new diplomatic efforts were underway.

Trump described Iran's leadership as “extremely duplicitous” after Tehran denied that new talks would begin. This denial from Iran follows earlier speculation about potential discussions.

Iran's government also stated no new talks would occur, emphasizing its consistent position. Earlier, Trump had expressed a desire for a new agreement with Iran, but officials indicated no immediate steps towards such talks were imminent.

The current situation remains unchanged, with neither side confirming any scheduled negotiations. Tensions between the two nations continue.
