Experience of talks could have been different, but US did not want

TEHRAN - Western media and analysts like to have their own interpretations of events. There's nothing wrong with that! As long as these interpretations are not completely contradictory to reality. One of these events is the dispute between Iran and the United States. U.S. presidents, whether Democrat or Republican, disagree on many issues, but Iran is perhaps the only topic on which they have little disagreement.

PORTLAND - Most people have witnessed the unfolding Israeli horrors in Gaza. No sane human being could classify Israel’s war as self-defense. It is brutal carnage in real time. Israel has killed well over 40,000 Palestinians, including 30,000 women and children in Gaza, with many more likely buried under the rubble and thousands injured; it has denied food and basic medicine to suffering Palestinians who have had limbs amputated without anesthetic and who face imminent danger of starvation, cholera and polio; and it has displaced the entire population of Gaza several times over.

SHANGHAI - The Middle East saw the most turbulent tensions after Hamas’s attack on October 7, 2023, through the first half of 2024.
