Iran has firmly rejected allegations that it agreed to new nuclear obligations during recent discussions with the United States in Switzerland.
A spokesperson for the Iranian Foreign Ministry stated on Monday that no negotiations on nuclear issues took place, directly contradicting earlier reports suggesting progress toward an interim framework.
The denial marks a sharp escalation in rhetoric following Sunday’s talks, which had been viewed by some observers as a potential thaw in bilateral relations.
The US side, however, maintains a different narrative, announcing that International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) inspectors are expected to return to Iran in the near future.
This divergence in messaging highlights the fragile state of diplomatic efforts to manage Tehran’s nuclear program.
While Washington frames the upcoming inspections as a sign of cooperation, Tehran’s outright denial of any substantive dialogue suggests a significant gap in expectations between the two parties.
