Iran refuses to negotiate with specific U.S. representatives Witkov and Kushner, accusing them of "betrayal." Instead, Iran prefers to negotiate with U.S. Vice President Vance. Although Trump claims that both sides have reached an agreement in principle, the Iranian Parliament Speaker denies any negotiations with the U.S. side.

Ask AI · Why is Iran rejecting specific U.S. negotiation envoys?

According to CCTV News, the network’s chief reporter learned that on the 25th local time, the spokesperson of the Iranian Hatem Ambiya Central Command called out to the United States: “Don’t dress your failure up as an agreement.”

The spokesperson said: “Your investment in the region will not have any updates, and you won’t be able to see the energy and oil prices from before.”

Citing Xinhua News Agency, the Iranian side rejected the U.S. President’s special envoy Witkoff and Trump’s son-in-law Kushner as the U.S. negotiation representatives, and accused the two of “betrayal and being unfaithful,” according to a report by the British newspaper The Daily Telegraph on the 24th.

The two, serving as the U.S. side’s negotiation representatives, held a third round of indirect talks with Iran in Geneva, Switzerland, on February 26, but not long after the talks concluded, the United States launched military strikes against Iran.

Insiders also revealed that Iran is more inclined to have Vice President Vance of the United States serve as a negotiation representative, and hold talks with Kalibaf, the chairman of Iran’s Islamic Consultative Assembly.

On the 23rd, U.S. President Trump told the media that the United States had held talks with Iran and that key points of an agreement had been formed. But Kalibaf, chairman of Iran’s Islamic Consultative Assembly, posted on social media denying any negotiations with the United States.
