Iran: Trump playing ‘psychological and media games’
Iran has criticised Trump’s shifting stance on whether to lift economic sanctions against Tehran as “games”.
Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei said at a news conference that the US president’s comments are not aimed at solving the problems between the two countries.
“These [statements by Trump] should be viewed more in the context of psychological and media games than as a serious expression in favour of dialogue or problem-solving,” Baghaei said.
On Friday, Trump sharply criticised Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, dropped plans to lift sanctions on Iran and said he would consider bombing Iran again if Tehran enriches uranium to worrisome levels.
Usual cooperation with IAEA not possible due to lack of safety guarantees: Iran
Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei says Iran cannot be expected to maintain cooperation with the IAEA when nuclear sites are being attacked by the US and Israel. He said the “security of agency inspectors cannot be guaranteed” just days after nuclear facilities were hit.
On Friday, Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi had said on X that IAEA chief Rafael Grossi’s insistence on visiting the bombed sites is “meaningless and possibly even malign in intent”.
Iran decries ‘destructive’ conduct by IAEA chief
Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian has told his French counterpart, Emmanuel Macron, that Tehran halted cooperation with the UN nuclear watchdog because of what he called its Director General Rafael Grossi’s “destructive” behaviour towards Iran.
Iran’s Guardian Council has ratified a parliament-approved legislation to suspend Tehran’s cooperation with the IAEA after the war with Israel.
“The action taken by parliament members … is a natural response to the unjustified, unconstructive, and destructive conduct of the Director General of the International Atomic Energy Agency,” Pezeshkian told Macron in a phone call, according to a presidency statement.
