U.S. intelligence agencies: Iran currently has no intention of substantive negotiations, believes Trump lacks sincerity

BlockBeats News, April 2nd, according to The New York Times, U.S. officials revealed that multiple U.S. intelligence agencies recently assessed that the Iranian government is currently unwilling to engage in substantive negotiations to end the U.S.-Israel war. Officials stated that the assessment indicates the Iranian government believes it holds a strong position in the war and does not need to yield to U.S. diplomatic demands.

They noted that although Iran is willing to keep communication channels open, the country distrusts the United States and believes President Trump is not sincere in negotiations. Over the past year, Trump twice ordered attacks on Iran during negotiations over its nuclear program. These assessments align with recent statements from Iranian officials.

U.S. and Iranian officials said the two countries are exchanging messages through intermediary nations, and possibly also through direct channels, but have not engaged in negotiations on the conditions for a ceasefire or ending the war. (Jin10)
