Tehran, June 16: Iran's Foreign Ministry said today it was currently impossible for the Islamic republic to engage in any dialogue with the United States. When asked if it was possible for Tehran and Washington to resume discreet but direct diplomatic contacts, Foreign Ministry spokesman Hamid Reza Asefi simply replied "no".
"The United States must first change the way it speaks about Iran," he said.
"The US has to accept it is a member of the international community just like everybody else, and is not superior. If this mentality changes, the Americans can escape from their growing isolation," Asefi added. Bureau Report
