Iran’s Supreme Leader Khamenei rejects U.S. offer of talks



Iranian supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei rejected Thursday a U.S. offer to negotiate one-on-one on Tehran’s disputed nuclear program so long as Washington continues to impose sanctions on Iran.

“You (Americans) want to negotiate when you are pointing the gun at Iran. The Iranian nation will not be intimidated by such actions,” Khamenei told air force commanders, according to excerpts of his speech posted on his website.

“Some rejoice at the offer of negotiations ... (but) negotiations will not solve anything,” he said.

The all-powerful Khamenei has final say on all key issues in the Islamic republic, including Iran’s sensitive nuclear activities and foreign policy.

His remarks came in response to an offer put forward by US Vice President Joe Biden to engage Iran directly to resolve the nuclear case.
