TEHRAN — Iran's foreign ministry said Friday that there were "no negotiations" taking place on its nuclear program, after U.S. President Donald Trump suggested it would relinquish its enriched uranium under a deal to end the Middle East war.

"At this stage, we are focused on ending the war, and there are no negotiations on the nuclear issue," ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baqaei told state TV.
