As the war between US-Israel and Iran enters the fourth week, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi on Monday came down heavily on the United States saying that negotiations are "over forever". Araghchi further said that the talks between the two countries was a "bitter experience".

"The negotiations with the Americans are over forever… a bitter experience and betrayal after promises of no attack!” said Araghchi in a video posted on X.

He further rejected the possibility of any dialogue between Tehran and Washington, adding that the latter had deceived them with promises of military action.

“There is no longer any room for dialogue with the Americans. They deceived us with promises of no attack, and even after achieving noticeable progress in the negotiations, they decided to attack us anyway," Araghchi added.

“The experience is exceedingly bitter, and trust is completely nonexistent. The regional war closes the doors of diplomacy forever!" he further remarked.

US-Israel-Iran War Enters Fourth Week

More than 1,500 people have been killed in Iran since the war began on February 28, the state broadcaster said recently, citing the health ministry. The extent of damage from US and Israeli strikes remains unclear, and uncertainty persists over who is effectively leading Iran. Meanwhile, in a major escalation, Iran has fired long-range missiles for the first time as the conflict between the United States, Israel, and Iran enters its fourth week.

According to Israeli military chief Eyal Zamir, Iran fired two ballistic missiles with a range of 4,000 kilometres at the US-UK military base Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean, marking a first in the ongoing conflict. The Israeli military highlighted that this represents Iran’s “first” use of long-range missiles, signaling the conflict’s expansion beyond the Middle East.

Amid escalating tensions in the Middle East, Iran on Saturday claimed that its Natanz nuclear facility was targeted in a strike. The Natanz uranium-enrichment ⁠facility was one of the three major nuclear sites targeted by the United States during strikes in June 2025. The other two facilities were the Fordow Fuel Enrichment Plant and the Isfahan Nuclear Technology Center. These sites form key parts of Iran’s nuclear program.
