Iran will not be meeting with the administration of US President Donald Trump unless Washington stops its "economic terrorism" against the Iranian people, Iran's foreign minister says referring to the US leader as the "mentality that wants to buy Greenland," Al Jazeera reports.
"The United States is engaged in economic war against the Iranian people. It won't be possible for us to engage with US unless they stop imposing a war, engaging in economic terrorism," Mohammad Zarif told reporters on Thursday after speaking at the Institute of Strategic and International Studies in the Malaysian capital.
"If they want to come back to the room, there is a ticket, and that ticket is to observe the agreement," he said, referring to the 2015 nuclear deal signed by Iran and world powers.
Zarif said Iran does not want to "meet for the sake of meeting".
"The basic principle of civilised world is that you do not negotiate with terrorists," said Zarif. "If they want to negotiate, they have to abandon terrorism."
