Mohammad Mokhber, a senior aide to the late supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, says Iran has no intention of negotiating with the United States.

Mokhber said this on Wednesday while speaking with State TV, stressing that Iran can continue the Middle East war for as long as needed.

According to him, Iran had no trust in America, adding that they have no basis for any negotiations with them.

“We will not go into any negotiation with the US. The Americans cannot be trusted. We can continue the war as long as we want,” he said.

Recall that Iran earlier said it will hold a three-day state funeral for supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who was killed in US-Israeli strikes.

“Starting at 10:00 pm (1830 GMT), the faithful will be able to pay a final homage to the body of the martyred guide of the nation, by visiting the Imam Khomenei grand mosque” in Tehran, official news agency Irna said, citing a statement from the Islamic Development Coordination Council.

Khamenei was 86 years old when he was killed, and will be buried in his home city of Mashhad in northeastern Iran.
