Iran announced on Thursday that it has no plans to resume nuclear talks with the United States following the conclusion of a 12-day conflict with Israel.

Iranian officials denied reports indicating any upcoming discussions between Tehran and Washington.

The recent conflict involved military confrontations between Israel and Iran. Iranian authorities stated that the situation has affected diplomatic activities, including nuclear negotiations with the United States.

Iran’s Foreign Ministry accused the United States of overstating the impact of recent military strikes on Iranian facilities.

Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei stated that the strikes did not cause the level of damage claimed by the United States. He also responded to public statements made by U.S. President Donald Trump regarding the operation.

Iran has not confirmed any plans for future discussions with the United States. Officials said the government is reviewing its diplomatic approach.

Iran enacted a legislative measure suspending cooperation with the United Nations’ nuclear framework.

No formal response has been issued by U.S. officials to Iran’s recent statements.
