Tehran - Saba:
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi stated, "I reiterate my offer for diplomacy once again.
Following my recent consultations in Moscow and Beijing, I am prepared to take the first step by visiting Paris, Berlin, and London. I was ready to do so even before the start of indirect negotiations with the U.S., but the three European countries did not show interest at the time."
According to the Tasnim International News Agency, the Foreign Minister explained in a post on Thursday that Iran's relations with the three European countries (France, Germany, and Britain) have seen significant fluctuations in recent years.
He added, "Whether we like it or not, these relations are currently in a declining phase. Why? Each side has its own narrative, but in my view, exchanging blame is pointless. What matters is that the current situation represents a loss for both sides."
He emphasized, "Last September, during my meeting in New York with the foreign ministers of the three countries, along with several other European counterparts, I proposed a dialogue. I told them: Let us choose cooperation over confrontation, not only on the nuclear issue but on all matters of shared interests and concerns. Unfortunately, they chose the difficult path."
