Reference News Network, August 24 report. According to Reuters, on August 24, Iranian state media reported that Iran's Supreme Leader said the current situation with the United States is "unsolvable," and stated that Tehran will never yield to pressure from Washington to comply. Iran is in a deadlock with Western powers regarding its nuclear program.
In a 12-day war in June, the United States and Israel bombed Iran's nuclear facilities, after which Iran suspended nuclear negotiations with the United States.
The report said that Iran and the European powers agreed on the 22nd to resume talks, trying to restart comprehensive negotiations to limit Tehran's nuclear enrichment. Following this, Supreme Leader Khamenei made the above statements.
The report said that Khamenei said: "They want Iran to obey the United States. The Iranian nation will fight all those who have wrong expectations."
He also said: "Those who ask us not to make anti-American slogans... who ask us to directly negotiate with the United States only see the surface... this issue is unsolvable."
France, Britain, and Germany said that if Tehran does not return to the negotiation table, they can reactivate UN sanctions against Iran under the "fast-track restoration mechanism."
The report said that these European countries and the United States both said that Iran is working to develop nuclear weapons. Iran, however, said it is only interested in developing nuclear energy.
