Trump claims Iran requested to negotiate with the U.S., Iran denies.

On June 19, the Permanent Mission of Iran to the United Nations said through social media on June 18 local time that Iran had not asked the United States for negotiations, and that US President Trump’s relevant remarks were “lies”. On the same day, Trump told the media at the White House about the military conflict between Israel and Iran that Iran wants to negotiate and has expressed its willingness to come to the White House for talks. In response, Iran’s Permanent Mission to the United Nations posted on social media that “no Iranian official has ever asked to grovel before the White House” and that Iran “will not negotiate under duress and will not accept peace under duress.” Iran will respond to any threat with counter-threats and any action with reciprocal measures. ”
