Iran has in recent days denied claims that it committed to purchasing American products, according to journalist Asaf Rozentzweig (N12). The denial adds to a series of pushbacks from Tehran against U.S. assertions about the terms of talks and released funds.
Journalist Asaf Rozentzweig (N12) reported Wednesday that Iran has in recent days denied claims it committed to purchasing American goods. This follows a pattern of Iranian officials rejecting U.S. assertions about the terms of their negotiations. As The Zioneer has reported, Iran's central bank governor, negotiating team members, and foreign ministry spokesman have previously denied U.S. claims that unfrozen Iranian funds would be used exclusively for U.S. agricultural products, that IAEA inspectors were summoned, or that missile talks were on the table. The current denial is attributed broadly by Rozentzweig to Iran, without naming a specific official. The U.S. has not yet responded to the latest round of denial, and no specifics on what the denied 'commitment' would have entailed were provided in the report.
