TEHRAN - Iranian Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi on Sunday said that so far "no round of negotiations has been held" between Iran and the United States, affirming that Iran is in favor of "indirect negotiations."

Araghchi made the remarks while attending the National Security Commission of the Iranian parliament, according to a report by the official media IRNA.
