Iran’s Khamenei rules out talks with United States
Iran’s supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei declared there will be no talks with the United States at any level. The statement, broadcast on state TV, follows heightened tensions after a weekend attack on Saudi oil facilities blamed on Iranian-backed groups. The U.S. has suggested possible talks during the U.N. General Assembly in New York, but Tehran and Riyadh deny or dispute origins and details of the assault. Saudi leaders urge the world to condemn the attack and defend against such strikes as regional tensions rise.
