Beirut strikes: 'No point' in talks if US cannot uphold 'commitments'

Article excerpt

Iran's chief negotiator Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf said Sunday there was 'no point' in continuing peace talks with the United States, citing Israeli strikes on Beirut's southern suburbs. The statement came as tensions escalated in the region following the attacks on the Lebanese capital. Ghalibaf accused the U.S. of failing to uphold its commitments, suggesting Iran views American assurances as insufficient given ongoing Israeli military operations in Lebanon.
