Iranian Hardliners Criticize President Over US Talks

Iranian hardliners have publicly criticized President Pezeshkian for engaging in negotiations with the United States. This marks a significant escalation in internal political tensions, as hardliners have long opposed any form of dialogue with Washington.
The criticism comes amid ongoing efforts to revive the 2015 nuclear deal, known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA). President Pezeshkian has been advocating for a diplomatic approach to ease economic sanctions and improve Iran's international standing.
Hardliners, however, argue that negotiations with the US are futile and undermine Iran's national sovereignty. They contend that previous engagements have not yielded substantial benefits and have instead led to further isolation and economic hardship.
The internal conflict has sparked debates within Iran's political landscape, with some supporters of the president defending his stance as a necessary step towards economic relief and regional stability.
The situation has drawn international attention, particularly from the United States and European countries, which are closely monitoring the developments and their potential impact on the nuclear deal negotiations.
