Tehran, YJC. Ayatollah Mahdavi Kani says that Iran has to keep a pessimistic eye for treachery in negotiations with the US.

Speaker of the Assembly of Experts Ayatollah Mohammadrezaq Mahdavi Kani in interview with Fars provided comments on the Supreme Leader’s notion of "heroic flexibility” and said "Whatever the Supreme Leader has said about it is correct.”

Asked if Iran can trust the US after the US president Barack Obama lately said that the military option is still on the table in regard to Iran, Mahdavi Kani said "No, we cannot trust it. Of course we must be careful. We must do negotiations but we must never be fooled.”

He further refused to give any comment on the telephone conversation between the president of the US and Iran by saying "Mr. Rouhani himself has spoken about it and I have no comment there.”
