Iran will not return to nuclear negotiations unless the United States agrees to provide compensation for damages sustained during last month’s war, Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi told the Financial Times.

"They should explain why they attacked us in the middle of... negotiations, and they have to ensure that they are not going to repeat that," Araghchi said in an interview published on Thursday.

The official added that the US must take responsibility for striking Iran during ongoing diplomatic exchanges and that talks cannot resume without financial redress.

Did anyone else just completely forget this was even a thing? Took me a good couple seconds to remember that it really was last month this all happened. Fucking hell....

    It would've been a longer affair but the West miscalculated, quickly realised it and took a step back. It ain't the early 00s anymore and Iran is not Iraq.

    If the war went on 2 more days and either Iran or Israel started to go down, they would close stright of Hormuz and started attacking US bases and oil refineries in the middleast, ... which is one way to spell economic doom for the entire world for years followed by the falling of all these US-petro states, followed by ISIS x 10, followed by nucular escilation or WW3

    Honestly I think we just... lost interest? The Epstein revelations & Palestine have really been the main topic of national discourse (and nobody here cared about whatever Iran was doing? There was so little political will behind the Iran shit it was pretty impressive.)
