PANews reported on April 22 that, according to CCTV International News, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Baghae stated today (April 22) that Iran has not yet decided whether to participate in the new round of negotiations with the United States. In an interview with the media, Baghae said that Iran participated in the first round of negotiations with the United States with sincerity and a serious attitude, but the US showed a cold attitude and lacked sincerity, with its position being inconsistent. He stated that Iran has clearly indicated that if going to Islamabad, Pakistan to participate in the negotiations is in its national interest, it will participate, but no decision has been made yet. Baghae stated that the US blockade of Iranian ports is an act of aggression, and the shooting and seizure of Iranian merchant ships is not the behavior of a country truly committed to a serious diplomatic process.
