Ayatollah Ali Khamenei Doesn't Think Iran's Nuclear Negotiations With The US Reaches A Deal
JAKARTA - Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei voiced doubts on Tuesday about whether nuclear negotiations with the United States would result in an agreement.
"I don't think nuclear negotiations with the US will come to fruition. I don't know," Khamenei said in a speech recalling the late Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi.
Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi previously stressed that ongoing talks between Iran and the United States could play a key role in promoting peace and stability across the region.
"We believe Iran-US negotiations can play an effective role in promoting peace, stability and security in the region. Regional countries also support this process," he said on the sidelines of the final day of the Tehran Dialogue Forum (TDF) on Monday.

Foreign Minister Araghchi said Arab countries in the Persian Gulf appear to have changed their stance on Iran, as seen in their "positive views" on negotiations between Tehran and Washington.
"It is important for the region to support negotiations and even try to resolve existing misunderstandings and get closer to the point of view," said Araghchi.
