Foreign Minister Araghchi warned: “Internal matters in Iran concern no one but the Iranian people. Any foreign attempts to interfere are unacceptable… and no outside power has the right to dictate our internal affairs”. He added: “Now is not the right time for negotiations, and this is due to U.S. policies… We are always ready for talks based on mutual interests and respect, but the U.S. government continues to pursue a confrontational and self-serving approach”.
