TEHRAN: Iran's delegation in New York for the UN General Assembly is not planning further talks with the United States, state media reported on Monday (Sep 28), after US President Donald Trump said he expected more negotiations soon .

Iranian and US officials last week held indirect talks mediated by Qatar on the sidelines of the UN meeting, with Tehran saying it presented seven conditions for ending their war and reopening the Strait of Hormuz.

But state news agency IRNA on Monday quoted an unnamed source close to the UN delegation as saying there were no more talks scheduled.
