Iran has said it is not planning to take part in the second round of talks with the United States, state media said. This came as US President Donald Trump ordered US negotiators to travel to Pakistan just days before a ceasefire in the Middle East expires on April 22. "The reports circulating about a second round of negotiations in Islamabad are false," Iran's state-sponsored broadcaster, Islamic Republic News Agency (IRNA), said. According to IRNA, America's "excessive demands, unreasonable and unrealistic expectations, frequent shifts in positions, continuous contradictions, and the so-called naval blockade which violates ceasefire understanding, along with threatening rhetoric, have so far hindered progress in the negotiations."
