Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian has stated that the United States is adopting a contradictory stance toward negotiations with Tehran, The Caspian Post reports, citing Al Jazeera.

“Our issue is that, on one side, America continues to pursue a policy of maximum pressure against our country, while on the other, it expects Iran to engage in negotiations and accept its unilateral demands. Such a situation is impossible,” Pezeshkian said.
