Iran accuses US of 'big lies' ahead of Geneva talks
DUBAI: Iran pushed back Wednesday against US President Donald Trump's pressure tactics ahead of critical talks in Geneva over Tehran's nuclear program, alternating between calling his remarks "big lies" and saying negotiations may yield an agreement through "honourable diplomacy."
Responding to Trump, Iranian foreign ministry spokesman Esmail Baghaei sought to compare him to Joseph Goebbels, Adolf Hitler's propaganda minister. He accused Trump and his administration of conducting a "disinformation & misinformation campaign" against Iran. "Whatever they're alleging in regards to Iran's nuclear program, Iran's ballistic missiles is simply the repetition of 'big lies,'" he said. AP
