Iran Says There Are No Current Talks With the United States

Iran said it is not engaged in any current talks with the United States, denying claims that diplomacy or negotiations are underway. Iranian officials framed the statement as a response to media reports suggesting backchannel discussions or renewed contacts. The announcement comes as regional tensions remain elevated and as both sides have exchanged longstanding disputes over sanctions and security concerns. The U.S. has previously indicated willingness to engage under certain conditions, but Tehran said no such process is happening at present. Further details on whether any future discussions are possible were not provided.
