Iran’s Araghchi: US treated nuclear negotiations ‘like a real estate’ deal

Shafaq News- Tehran

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi on Wednesday
criticized the United States’ approach to nuclear negotiations, arguing that
treating them “like a real estate transaction” makes meaningful progress
impossible.

On X, Araghchi wrote that when complex nuclear talks
are handled in that manner and misinformation clouds the process, “unrealistic
expectations” emerge, adding, “The outcome? Bombing the negotiation table out
of spite.” He also accused US President Donald Trump of abandoning diplomacy
and betraying the American voters who elected him.

When complex nuclear negotiations are treated like a real estate transaction, and when big lies cloud realities, unrealistic expectations can never be met. The outcome? Bombing the negotiation table out of spite. Mr. Trump betrayed diplomacy and Americans who elected him.
