Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian said Tehran "no longer trusts" talks with Washington, according to a report from Al Jazeera, in remarks that came shortly before US President Donald Trump rejected Iran's proposal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz.
The comments reflect a marked deterioration in tone between the two governments, coming at a moment of heightened tension over the Hormuz proposal and the broader situation involving Iran.
Diplomatic rift deepens
Pezeshkian's remarks did not detail the specific grievances behind Tehran's stated loss of trust, but they arrive alongside a series of developments suggesting little near-term progress toward a diplomatic resolution between the two countries.
The timing of the comments, closely followed by Trump's rejection of Iran's Hormuz plan, underscores the difficulty both sides appear to be having in finding common ground.
It remains unclear what, if any, further diplomatic channels remain open between Tehran and Washington following these latest exchanges.
