Iran Press/ Iran : Ayatollah Ahmad Khatami ruled out the possibility of holding any negotiations with the United states with the Trump administration's track record in breaking out of commitments.
“As the Leader of the Islamic Republic has repeatedly said, we will not negotiate with the US at any levels because the current US administration has not remained loyal to any of its commitments and it holds no regard for any obligation,” Ayatollah Ahmad Khatami said in today’s Friday Prayers in Tehran.
