: Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei says a call by US President Donald Trump for negotiations with Iran is nothing but an attempt to "deceive the world public opinion" and portray the Islamic Republic as the party not willing to give diplomacy another chance.

Trump’s call for talks with Iran ‘deception’: Ayatollah Khamenei
“When we know he doesn’t honor [agreements], what is the point of negotiating?” the Leader asked. “Therefore, calls for negotiation and talks of negotiation are meant to deceive the global public opinion.”
The Leader said the Trump administration does not intend to remove the sanctions, and that negotiations will only worsen the pressure campaign as Washington will raise new demands.
“If the purpose of negotiations is to lift the sanctions, negotiating with this US administration will not remove the sanctions. It will make the sanctions even tighter and increase the pressure,” the Leader said.
