A spokesman for Iran's foreign ministry on Tuesday said that representatives for the country would not be open to a meeting between President Trump Donald John TrumpSteele Dossier sub-source was subject of FBI counterintelligence probe Pelosi slams Trump executive order on pre-existing conditions: It 'isn't worth the paper it's signed on' Trump 'no longer angry' at Romney because of Supreme Court stance MORE and Iranian President Hassan Rouhani, calling the U.S. “totally unreliable” and citing Trump's withdrawal from the Iran nuclear agreement in a statement.

Bahram Qassemi said at a news conference that there would "definitely not" be a possibility for a meeting between the two leaders, adding that the Trump administration's withdrawal from the nuclear pact with his government likely prohibited further negotiations, according to The New York Times.

“With current America and these policies, there will definitely not be the possibility of dialogue and engagement, and the United States has shown that it is totally unreliable,” Qassemi said.

“I think there are no conditions for such a discussion at all,” he added, according to the Times.

Trump on Monday had indicated an interest in meeting with Rouhani in a manner similar to his June summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un in Singapore, which led to the historic signing of an agreement between the two leaders calling for a denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula.

“I’ll meet with anybody,” Trump said of a possible meeting with Iranian leaders during a joint press conference with Italy's prime minister. “If they want to meet, I’ll meet. Anytime they want.”

“You meet,” he added. “There’s nothing wrong with meeting.”

Trump's call for a meeting came only days after he threatened the country with dire consequences in an all-caps tweet rebuking Rouhani for threats made against the United States.

“NEVER, EVER THREATEN THE UNITED STATES AGAIN OR YOU WILL SUFFER CONSEQUENCES THE LIKES OF WHICH FEW THROUGHOUT HISTORY HAVE EVER SUFFERED BEFORE,” Trump tweeted. “WE ARE NO LONGER A COUNTRY THAT WILL STAND FOR YOUR DEMENTED WORDS OF VIOLENCE & DEATH. BE CAUTIOUS!”

Iran's foreign ministry responded, mocking Trump for not taking a more “civilized” tone.

“COLOR US UNIMPRESSED,” Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif tweeted. “The world heard even harsher bluster a few months ago. And Iranians have heard them —albeit more civilized ones—for 40 yrs.”

Trump faced rebukes from U.S. allies in Europe earlier this year when he announced that the U.S. would exit the accords agreed upon by Iran, the U.S. and several other nations during the Obama administration meant to stop the country from acquiring nuclear weapons.
