Iran demands guarantees against US attacks for nuclear talks: Analysis

Ali Akbar Darieni, a researcher at the Tehran-based Centre for Strategic Studies, told Al Jazeera that Iran remains deeply sceptical of US intentions despite talk of renewed negotiations. He said Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi dismissed President Trump's claim that talks could begin within days, stressing Iran would only re-engage if assured there would be no further military attacks. While Araghchi insisted diplomacy remains possible, Darieni said past US behaviour makes any guarantees hard to trust.
