Iran has not changed its decision to abstain from talks with US - Iranian media

BBC - Despite US President Trump telling the New York Post that the US delegation is en route to Pakistan, Iran has not "altered its decision to abstain" from the talks, according to Iran’s hard-line Tasnim news agency which is affiliated with Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).

According to Tasnim’s report, the US naval blockade remains an "obstacle", but, beyond this, US messages to Iran "contain further excessive demands that cloud the prospects for the upcoming talks".

Iran "remains fully prepared for military confrontation and to once again punish the US," it says.

Tasnim has not named any officials as their source in its report, and we're yet to see if Iran will attend the talks or not.
