Tehran Declares Nuclear Talks with the U.S. "Meaningless" Amid Israeli Attacks

Iran declares nuclear talks with the U.S. meaningless as Israeli attacks escalate, accusing Washington of backing aggression and violating sovereignty.

Iran Halts Nuclear Talks with the U.S. Over Israeli Strikes

Iran's Foreign Minister, Abbas Araqchi, announced on Saturday that continuing nuclear negotiations with the United States is no longer justifiable, following a wave of Israeli attacks on Iran, which Tehran describes as "barbaric."


According to Iranian media, Araqchi stressed that talks with Washington cannot proceed while Israel continues its aggression, supported—directly or indirectly—by the United States.


Iran Labels Nuclear Dialogue with U.S. as "Meaningless"

Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmail Baghaei echoed this sentiment, declaring on state television that dialogue with the United States regarding Tehran’s nuclear program is meaningless. He blamed Washington for endorsing Israel’s actions, claiming that the U.S. gave a green light to the assault.


Baghaei emphasized that ongoing Israeli aggression has rendered the upcoming round of indirect nuclear talks, scheduled in Muscat, Oman, completely useless.


U.S. Accused of Hypocrisy and Backing Israeli Aggression

The Iranian spokesman pointed out what he called a clear contradiction in the American position. "While Washington publicly calls for diplomacy and nuclear de-escalation, it simultaneously turns a blind eye to Israel’s violations of Iran’s sovereignty."


Baghaei asserted that Israel’s recent attack would not have occurred without U.S. approval, squarely placing blame on the Biden administration.

A final decision regarding Iran’s participation in the Muscat nuclear talks is expected on Sunday.

Iran Suspends Nuclear Negotiations After Israeli Strikes


Iran officially suspended nuclear negotiations with the U.S. after a large-scale Israeli military operation struck several strategic Iranian targets, including nuclear facilities.

Foreign Minister Araqchi reaffirmed Iran’s right to self-defense and vowed to respond. He accused Washington of enabling Israeli aggression and criticized the IAEA Board of Governors for legitimizing the attack through its recent resolution against Iran’s nuclear program.

Massive Israeli Strike: Operation "Rising Lion"


On Friday, Israel launched a coordinated, multi-target operation against Iran, codenamed "Rising Lion". The assault included dozens of fighter jets targeting missile bases, nuclear infrastructure, and strategic locations.


Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu described the operation as "unprecedented," stating its goal was to cripple Iran’s nuclear and military capabilities.

Iran Responds with "True Promise-3"

In retaliation, Iran launched Operation True Promise-3, which involved six rounds of ballistic missile and drone attacks. According to Israeli sources, the strikes resulted in three deaths, 172 injuries, and widespread property damage.


One notable Iranian strike reportedly hit a strategic site in Tel Aviv, but details remain scarce due to strict military censorship.


Largest Open Confrontation Between Israel and Iran

The current conflict marks a significant escalation in Middle East tensions, shifting from covert sabotage operations and assassinations to open military confrontation. This is considered the largest direct attack between Israel and Iran in decades.


U.S. Still Interested in Iran Nuclear Talks

Despite Tehran’s announcement, a U.S. official told The Washington Post that the United States remains interested in pursuing nuclear diplomacy with Iran. The official dismissed claims that the talks were deceptive, calling them a "false narrative."


Conclusion: A Critical Turning Point in U.S.–Iran Relations

The ongoing conflict between Iran and Israel, and Iran’s strong accusations against the United States, highlight a growing mistrust that threatens to derail any prospects for renewed Iran nuclear talks. As Tehran prepares to decide the future of negotiations, global powers are watching closely.
