Iran has formally refused to participate in negotiations with the United States scheduled for Wednesday in Islamabad, Pakistan, according to the Tasnim news agency. Tehran informed the US through a Pakistani intermediary that its decision not to attend the meeting is final. This move marks a definitive collapse of the planned second round of talks, which were intended to de-escalate tensions over the US naval blockade and Iran's nuclear program. The announcement follows a series of Iranian statements rejecting negotiations under pressure and demanding the blockade be lifted first.
