Iran Foreign Minister Zarif: It is the United States that betrayed the negotiation table

"This time, it was the United States that betrayed the negotiation table. I must clarify this during this negotiation. When we participated in the negotiations, we knew they had ulterior motives. The level and plan they came with were already obvious.

So why did we participate? We participated in the negotiations to prove to the world that their intention was to attack the Islamic Republic of Iran, their intention was hostile; it was also to prevent them from claiming that we had requested the negotiations while the Islamic Republic of Iran had refused. We conducted the negotiations for the purpose of clarifying that the truth is on our side, to provide the world with irrefutable evidence, and to make our own people understand that it was not the Islamic Republic of Iran that caused the war by refusing to negotiate."
