'It's meaningless': Iran top diplomat rules out direct negotiations with US

Tehran dismissed direct talks with the US after President Trump expressed interest in negotiating without intermediaries.

This follows increased tension after the US's withdrawal from the 2015 nuclear deal and re-imposition of sanctions.
