Iran’s supreme leader says negotiations with America “are not intelligent, wise or honorable,” after U.S. President Donald Trump suggested he wants nuclear talks with Tehran despite reimposing his “ maximum pressure ” approach to Iran.

Iran's supreme leader said Friday that negotiations with America are not intelligent, wise or honourable after President Donald Trump floated nuclear talks with Tehran.

Ayatollah Ali Khamenei also suggested that “there should be no negotiations with such a government,” but stopped short of issuing a direct order not to engage with Washington.

Iran’s supreme leader says that negotiations with America “are not intelligent, wise or honorable” after President Donald Trump floated nuclear talks with Tehran.

Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said on Friday that talks with the United States were "not smart, wise, or honorable", days after U.S. President Donald Trump said he would "love to make a deal" with Iran.

Iran’s Supreme Leader rejected holding talks with Donald Trump, saying that experience shows it is “not rational, intelligent, or honorable” to do so.

Ayatollah Ali Khamenei’s remark followed President Trump’s suggestion that he wanted to deal with Tehran over its nuclear program.
