Iran has said it has no plans to negotiate with the United States, despite President Donald Trump’s expectation that talks could resume soon following renewed tensions over the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz.

State media in Iran on Monday reported that no new talks were planned with the United States, after US President Donald Trump told media he expected more negotiations.
“Iran’s delegation in New York (for the UN General Assembly) has no plans for negotiations with the United States,” said the official IRNA news agency, citing an unnamed source close to the group.
Trump told Axios on Sunday that he expected talks to resume soon, a day after he rejected a proposal by Tehran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz within seven days.
