Tehran, 28 june 2025 (dpa/MIA) - Iran is fundamentally willing to resume nuclear negotiations with the US, according to a post on X by Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi, though he called on US President Donald Trump to moderate his tone.

"If President Trump is genuine about wanting a deal, he should put aside the disrespectful and unacceptable tone towards Iran's Supreme Leader, Grand Ayatollah Khamenei, and stop hurting his millions of heartfelt followers," Araghchi said in his post. "Good will begets good will, and respect begets respect."

Trump said at a recent summit that new talks would be held with Iran next week, but did not provide any details.

Several rounds of negotiations between Tehran and Washington on the Iranian nuclear programme failed to produce an agreement in recent months.

Then, in June, accusing Iran of seeking to develop nuclear weapons, Israel targeted facilities across the country during a 12-day war.

Beyond nuclear facilities, Israel also struck defence positions, targets in cities, and oil and natural gas fields and killed more than 20 high-ranking military officials, some of them in their homes.

The US also intervened on Israel's behalf with a strike on Iranian nuclear sites.

Iran consistently stresses that its nuclear programme is solely for civilian purposes.

When asked whether he would order another bombing of Iran's nuclear facilities if concerns about Tehran's uranium enrichment resurfaced, Trump responded yes, saying Iran must not be allowed nuclear weapons. The latest attacks set back its nuclear programme by years, he reiterated.

After the Israeli and US attacks, the Iranian parliament passed a law this week suspending cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), though Tehran has not formally notified the agency of such a step.

Nuclear negotiations would not be possible without the technical supervision of the UN nuclear agency, according to specialists.
