Iranian Official Denies Reports of Talks with U.S., Claims Assassination Plot

On March 23, local time, a source revealed that reports of Iranian Islamic Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf engaging in negotiations with the United States are entirely fabricated. According to Jin10, the source stated that one of the purposes behind creating this false narrative was to set the stage for an assassination attempt on Ghalibaf. The source further explained that the fabrication aimed to discredit Ghalibaf, incite division within Iran, and stir public sentiment. Iranian officials unanimously believe that the fight will continue until Iran achieves its goals and aggressors repent.
