(Ahlul Bayt News Agency) - Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei says Iran’s nuclear negotiations with the Sextet of powers will lead nowhere, but noted that he is not opposed to the talks.
“Some officials from the [former] administration and this administration think that if they hold talks on the nuclear issue, the problem will be solved. I also said it in the speech at the beginning of the year (Iranian year 1392 which started on March 21, 2013) that I am not optimistic about negotiations and it will lead nowhere, but I’m not opposed to it either,” the Leader said in an address to a gathering of thousands of people from the northwestern city of Tabriz on Monday.
The gathering was held in Tehran to mark the anniversary of the 1978 uprising of the people of Tabriz against the US-backed Pahlavi rule.
Ayatollah Khamenei said Iran will never capitulate to the global hegemony's bullying tactics and dismissed attempts to portray the US government as caring and humanitarian as “futile.”
