TEHRAN — Iranian state television said Tuesday that no Iranian delegation had yet departed for talks with the United States in Pakistan.

"So far, no delegation from Iran has departed for Islamabad, Pakistan; whether it is the main or subsidiary delegation; primary or secondary," state TV said, dismissing reports suggesting otherwise.
