Government Spokesperson said on Tuesday that while Iran’s nuclear sites sustained serious damage in the recent U.S. attack, no date has been set for talks with Washington — and such talks may not happen anytime soon.

Why it matters:

 Fatemeh Mohajerani's comments contradict recent U.S. claims suggesting a possible diplomatic track. 

 

The big picture:

Tehran is signaling unwillingness in the aftermath of the U.S. attack that targeted its nuclear facilities.

Iran's government is not ready to reengage unless certain conditions are met.

 

What she’s saying:

Mohajerani on the U.S. attack: “Our nuclear facilities have sustained serious damage.”

On the negotiation timeline: “No date has been determined for negotiations — and it’s possible that such a date is not even close.”
