Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Ismail Baghaei revealed on Monday that there is a communication channel between Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi and US envoy Steve Wittkopf.
During his weekly press conference, Baghaei stressed Tehran’s continued commitment to the principle of diplomacy and equal negotiation, accusing the United States of “violating international laws and Venezuela’s sovereignty.”
He argued that this violation could not be justified in any way, warning that direct American-Israeli interference in Iranian internal affairs constituted incitement to violence and terrorism against the Iranian people.
He also described what the country is currently witnessing as a “terrorist war” and a continuation of American-Israeli aggression, stressing Iran’s support for Lebanon’s sovereignty, independence, and territorial integrity.
He concluded by emphasizing Tehran’s rejection of any infringement on the security and stability of the countries in the region.
Earlier today, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi said that what his country is currently experiencing “is not demonstrations, but a terrorist war being waged against Iran,” stressing that the situation in the country is “completely under control.”
