Iran reviewing U.S. proposal for talks, says foreign minister

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said the United States has proposed holding talks and that the Iranian government is now reviewing the possibility. Speaking at a press conference in Russia on April 27, Araghchi questioned U.S. President Donald Trump's self-proclaimed victory, asking why he would propose negotiations if that were the case. Araghchi pointed out that Iran is confronting the world's largest superpower and that the U.S. has failed to achieve any of its objectives. This, he emphasized, is why the U.S. requested negotiations, and Iran is now considering the option.
