Iran says there is “no point” in continuing peace talks with the United States following Israeli strikes on Beirut’s southern suburbs. Iran’s chief negotiator Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf makes the statement after Israel carries out attacks targeting Iran-backed Hezbollah, according to reporting in multiple outlets. Iran accuses the US of failing to uphold its commitments, and uses the strikes as evidence that any prospective deal or negotiation track lacks credibility. Inquirer.net adds that the comments come amid US President Donald Trump’s earlier statements suggesting a Middle East agreement could be signed as early as Sunday, and notes Iran’s skepticism about that timeline and the wider deal. The outlets agree that the immediate trigger for Iran’s position is the Israeli action in Beirut and that the broader message is a rejection, or at least a pause, on talks with Washington until Iran perceives US obligations are met. The accounts do not provide additional details in the provided excerpts on specific new US or Israeli responses beyond Iran’s criticism and its dismissal of the value of further negotiations at this stage.
