Iranian officials: Tehran withdraws from talks with the United States to weaken Trump politically

Tel Aviv - Ofoq News - Three high-ranking Iranian officials and a person close to the regime revealed to Reuters that Iran is deliberately delaying talks with the United States in an attempt to weaken President Donald Trump politically ahead of the midterm congressional elections in November.

At the same time, fears of renewed military operations and deep mistrust in Washington have reinforced Tehran's reluctance to formulate a quick agreement to end the war, according to the sources.

Tehran believes that the US President is ready to launch new attacks in an attempt to break the stalemate in the war. One high-ranking official said: “Iran is preparing for new attacks from Israel and the United States, not for an agreement that will end the war.”
