The US president will gain nothing from bullying, broken promises, and fake news, Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf has said
US President Donald Trump should curb his “theater diplomacy” as it will not work with Iran, Tehran’s top negotiator, Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, has said.
Trump announced on Saturday that he had called off a planned attack on Iran, which, according to him, would have been on a scale “not seen since World War II.” He claimed that he made the decision because Washington and Tehran were close to reaching a diplomatic solution to the conflict in the Middle East.
In the following days, the US president insisted that the two sides were “having very good discussions,” but warned that Iran would be “hit very hard” if the Strait of Hormuz, through which around one-fifth of the world’s seaborne oil passes, was not reopened “very soon.” Tehran has repeatedly denied holding any direct negotiations with the Americans.
Ghalibaf took to X on Thursday to berate Trump’s approach to dealing with Tehran. “‘Massive attack coming… wait, never mind, they want to negotiate’. That’s theater diplomacy on loop,” he wrote.
