Rasa News Agency reports - Supreme leader of Islamic Revolution in Iran, Imam Sayyed Ali Khamenei stressed that the negotiating team with world powers over the Islamic Republic’s nuclear talks were not compromisers.
His eminence also slammed the United States policy of approaching the talks on two fronts of sanctions and diplomacy.
"No one should see our negotiating team as compromisers," Imam Khamenei was quoted as saying on his official website.
"I am not optimistic about the (nuclear) negotiations but, with the grace of God, we will not suffer losses either," he added.
A new round of talks between Iranian negotiators and representatives from the so-called P5+1 group of world powers is scheduled in Geneva for November 7 and 8.
"All the better if the negotiations bear fruit but if there are no results, the country should rely on itself," the Leader said.
Meanwhile, he criticized the United States, describing it as a smiling enemy.
"The Americans smile and express desire for negotiation; on the other hand, they immediately say that all options are on the table," he said.
"We should not trust a smiling enemy."
