Odaily Planet Daily News: Iran's permanent mission to the United Nations said on social media on June 18 local time that Iran had never asked the United States for negotiations, and that US President Trump's related remarks were "lies." Trump told the media at the White House that day regarding the military conflict between Israel and Iran that Iran wanted to negotiate and had expressed its willingness to come to the White House for talks. In response, Iran's permanent mission to the United Nations posted on social media that "no Iranian official has ever asked to kowtow at the door of the White House," and Iran "will not negotiate under coercion, and will not accept peace under coercion. Iran will respond to any threat with a counter-threat and any action with reciprocal measures." (CCTV International News)
