Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf stated,on Sunday, that Tehran will not await any messages from the United States and would counter sanctions through its domestic strength and international relations.

Ghalibaf further remarked that US President Donald Trump’s approach to other nations demonstrates that his remarks about negotiations are intended solely for "deception and disarming Iran" and to "force us into making concessions."

The speaker of Iran's parliament emphasized that Tehran "firmly rejects negotiations under threats" and stated that any negotiations aimed at extracting concessions through pressure would not lead to the lifting of sanctions. He further noted that such negotiations would only result in the "humiliation of the Iranian people."

This comes after the Leader of the Islamic Revolution and the Islamic Republic of Iran, Sayyed Ali Khamenei, denounced Saturday what he described as "bullying tactics", a day after US President Donald Trump revealed that he had sent a letter to the Iranian leadership and threatened military action against the country.

In a Fox Business interview, Trump indicated that "there are two ways Iran can be handled: militarily, or you make a deal" to prevent Tehran from obtaining nuclear weapons.

"Some bully governments -- I really don't know of any more appropriate term for some foreign figures and leaders than the word bullying -- insist on negotiations," Sayyed Khamenei told officials.

The Iranian Leader asserted that such bullying powers seek to impose their own demands.

"The insistence of some bullying governments on negotiations is not to resolve issues ... Talks for them is a pathway to have new demands, it is not only about Iran's nuclear issue ... Iran will definitely not accept their expectations," he underscored, without directly naming the United States or referring to Trump's letter.

"They are bringing up new demands that certainly will not be accepted by Iran, like our defence capabilities, missile range and international influence," Sayyed Khamenei was quoted as saying.

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said on state television that his country has not received any letter from the United States.

"We have also heard of it (the letter) but we haven't received anything," Araghchi told reporters on Saturday.

He added that Iran has never and will never agree to negotiations that imply coercion.
