Diplomacy on Hold: Iranian Minister Doubts Quick Resumption of Talks with the US!
Ready for another round of endless diplomatic games? Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Arakchi openly doubts that talks with the United States will resume anytime soon. In an interview with CBS News, Arakchi made it clear that “the doors of diplomacy will never be slammed shut,” but that restarting negotiations will take much longer than many expect.
Why the big doubt?
Arakchi stresses that Iran must be sure the US will not resort to military attacks during negotiations. The recent US airstrikes on Iranian nuclear sites, including Fordow, Isfahan, and Natanz, have left deep scars. While former President Trump claimed these sites were “completely wiped out,” General Dan Keane confirmed they suffered “extremely heavy damage.” However, the head of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), Rafael Grossi, warns that the sites were not destroyed to the extent that Iran cannot resume uranium enrichment within a few months.
Nuclear program as national pride
Arakchi emphasized that Iran’s nuclear program has become a matter of national pride. After the 12-day war with Israel, the Iranian people’s will to continue uranium enrichment has only strengthened. “The country’s peaceful nuclear program has turned into a celebration of national pride,” he said, making it clear that Iran will not easily give up its ambitions.
Technology can’t be bombed away
“Technology and science cannot be destroyed by bombing,” Arakchi said. If there is the will, Iran will quickly restore damaged sites and make up for lost time. This is a clear signal that despite pressures and attacks, Iran does not plan to abandon its nuclear program.
What does this mean for the world?
This situation casts a shadow over the future of diplomatic relations between Iran and the US. While some expect a quick resolution, the reality is that without security guarantees against military attacks, talks will remain on hold. And while the world wonders if there will be a new conflict or a diplomatic miracle, Iran firmly holds its position.
Conclusion
If you thought talks with Iran would resume quickly, think again. Arakchi clearly says it will take time because Iran will not agree to negotiations under the threat of bombing. The nuclear program is now a matter of national pride, and technology cannot be destroyed even by the harshest attacks.
So, what do you think? Will Iran and the US ever find common ground, or are we in for many more years of diplomatic silence and tension? Drop a comment, maybe together we’ll uncover what’s really going on behind the scenes of this tense power game!
