Khamenei said: “Those who threaten us to conduct direct negotiations with the United States only see appearances, in my view… the matter is intractable.”

The Iranian News Agency noted that Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi held a joint phone call with his counterparts from France, Britain, and Germany on Friday to discuss nuclear talks and sanctions.

The three European powers have threatened to trigger the UN snapback sanctions mechanism against Iran if it does not return to the negotiating table.
