Iran’s supreme leader said on Friday that negotiations with America “are not intelligent, wise or honourable” after US President Donald Trump floated nuclear talks with Tehran.

Ayatollah Ali Khamenei also suggested that “there should be no negotiations with such a government,” but stopped short of issuing a direct order not to engage with Washington.
