Will Iran and the US Talk Again? Iran Says Not Yet! 🇮🇷🤝🇺🇸
Hey there! Have you ever wondered how countries talk to each other? Sometimes it’s like when you and your friend have a disagreement and need to chat it out.
Lately, people have been asking if Iran and the United States will start talking again to solve some important issues. But guess what? Iran’s Foreign Minister, Seyed Abbas Araghchi, says there’s no agreement to start talks right now.
What’s Going On?
Recently, U.S. President Donald Trump said that the U.S. would hold discussions with Iran next week. But Iran’s Foreign Minister responded by saying that nothing has been planned yet.
“We haven’t agreed to any talks with the U.S. at this time,” he said. “We’ll only consider talking if it’s good for Iran.”
What’s the Big Deal?
Iran and the U.S. have been having disagreements, especially about Iran’s nuclear program. A nuclear program is when a country uses powerful energy from atoms to make electricity or sometimes weapons.
The U.S. wants to make sure that Iran isn’t making nuclear weapons. Iran says it’s not, but the two countries need to talk to make sure everyone understands each other.
Different Opinions
The leader of Iran, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, said that the U.S. didn’t gain anything from its actions against Iran. He said that Iran gave the U.S. a “harsh slap in the face” by standing strong.
On the other hand, some U.S. officials say they’ve slowed down Iran’s nuclear program with their actions. But there’s a lot of debate about how much impact there really was.
What’s Next?
Nobody knows for sure! Iran says they might consider talking to the U.S. if it’s good for them. But for now, there’s no plan to start talks.
Also, Iran has decided to change how it works with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). That’s a group that checks on nuclear programs around the world to make sure they’re safe.
Why Does This Matter?
It’s important for countries to communicate to keep peace and solve problems. When big countries like Iran and the U.S. have disagreements, it can affect the whole world.
Expert’s Opinion
Qin Tian, an expert who studies the Middle East, thinks that Iran is keeping some things secret about its nuclear program. This way, they have more power when they do decide to talk with the U.S.
He says that Iran’s nuclear abilities are not just about making power or weapons. It’s also about feeling strong and proud as a country.
