Iran's Supreme Leader Bans Further Talks with U.S.
(Reuters) Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei on Wednesday banned any further negotiations between Iran and the U.S. His statements directly contradict those of Iranian President Hassan Rouhani. "Negotiations with the United States open gates to their economic, cultural, political and security influence," Khamenei said, adding that talks with the U.S. brought only disadvantages to Iran. "We are in a critical situation now as the enemies are trying to change the mentality of our officials and our people on the revolution and our national interests."
