Investing.com -- The President of Iran, Masoud Pezeshkian, has made it clear that he will not engage in negotiations with U.S. President Donald Trump while the latter continues to issue threats. This statement comes in response to a letter sent by Trump to Iran’s top authority in which he urged Tehran to negotiate a nuclear deal.

Pezeshkian’s strong stance was reported by the state media on Tuesday, where he was quoted saying, "I won’t even negotiate with you under threats... do whatever the hell you want". This outright rejection of the U.S. President’s proposal indicates a significant tension between the two countries over the issue of nuclear negotiations.
