Amid rising tensions in West Asia following the reported killing of Iran\u2019s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei in US-Israeli strikes, Iran\u2019s Supreme National Security Council Secretary Ali Larijani on Monday firmly denied any plans to negotiate with the United States.
His remarks came in response to a media report suggesting that Tehran was considering resuming indirect talks with Washington through Oman. Citing the Wall Street Journal, Al Jazeera had reported that Larijani had proposed restarting discussions via Omani intermediaries. However, Larijani rejected the claim and dismissed the speculation.
In a strongly worded statement, he also criticised US President Donald Trump, accusing him of destabilising the region and prioritising Israel\u2019s interests over America\u2019s own. Larijani asserted that Iran did not initiate the conflict and said the country\u2019s armed forces were acting in self-defence.
Meanwhile, Iran\u2019s state media reported that the Provisional Leadership Council convened its second meeting in the presence of President Masoud Pezeshkian, Judiciary Chief Gholamhossein Mohseni-Ejei and senior cleric Alireza Arafi. The interim council was formed after the deaths of Khamenei and several top security officials and will govern until a new supreme leader is appointed.
According to Iranian state media, over 200 people have been killed across multiple provinces in the ongoing attacks.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-37168","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"yoast_head":"\nIran security chief Ali Larijani rules out talks with us amid escalating tensions - Daily Taskeen<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/dailytaskeen.com\/?p=37168\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Iran security chief Ali Larijani rules out talks with us amid escalating tensions - Daily Taskeen\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/dailytaskeen.com\/?p=37168\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Daily Taskeen\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2026-03-02T07:08:45+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/dailytaskeen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Snapshot_1474.png\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"1920\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"1080\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/png\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"editor1\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"editor1\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"2 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/dailytaskeen.com\/?p=37168\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/dailytaskeen.com\/?p=37168\",\"name\":\"Iran security chief Ali Larijani rules out talks with us amid escalating tensions - Daily Taskeen\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/dailytaskeen.com\/#website\"},\"primaryImageOfPage\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/dailytaskeen.com\/?p=37168#primaryimage\"},\"image\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/dailytaskeen.com\/?p=37168#primaryimage\"},\"thumbnailUrl\":\"https:\/\/dailytaskeen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Snapshot_1474-300x169.png\",\"datePublished\":\"2026-03-02T07:08:45+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/dailytaskeen.com\/#\/schema\/person\/6cfa84d9ff0700972e0c05932c80c5a7\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/dailytaskeen.com\/?p=37168#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/dailytaskeen.com\/?p=37168\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/dailytaskeen.com\/?p=37168#primaryimage\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/dailytaskeen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Snapshot_1474.png\",\"contentUrl\":\"https:\/\/dailytaskeen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Snapshot_1474.png\",\"width\":1920,\"height\":1080,\"caption\":\"Amid rising tensions in West Asia following the reported killing of Iran\u2019s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei in US-Israeli strikes, Iran\u2019s Supreme National Security Council Secretary Ali Larijani on Monday firmly denied any plans to negotiate with the United States.
