Iran says no decision yet on joining talks with US

• Iran has yet to confirm its participation in the anticipated second round of negotiations in Islamabad.
• Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baqaei accused the United States of demonstrating a lack of good faith.
• The uncertainty follows US President Donald Trump's recent decision to extend the bilateral ceasefire indefinitely.

Iran has announced that it has not yet made a final decision regarding its participation in the upcoming second round of peace negotiations with the United States.

The hesitation comes amid growing diplomatic friction, casting doubt on the immediate future of the internationally mediated talks scheduled to take place in Pakistan.

Accusations of bad faith

Speaking to Iran's State TV on Wednesday, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baqaei expressed frustration with the American approach to the diplomatic process thus far.

"We entered the negotiations in good faith and with seriousness, but the negotiating party (the United States) has shown disregard and lack of good faith," Baqaei stated.

Uncertainty surrounding Islamabad talks

The anticipated second round of negotiations, initially expected to convene in the Pakistani capital later this week, remains officially unconfirmed due to Tehran's current stance.

"Iran has not yet decided whether it will participate in the new round of peace negotiations with the United States scheduled for later this week," Baqaei confirmed.

The diplomatic stall follows a major development on Tuesday, when US President Donald Trump announced an indefinite extension of the ongoing ceasefire with Iran.

While the pause in hostilities remains in effect, the lack of a clear timeline has left the next steps for resuming direct dialogue uncertain.
