IRGC tells the US and Israel: "Do not call your defeat an agreement"

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps spokesman pushed back on recent comments from President Trump suggesting that talks with Iran had been taking place. In a blunt message aimed at both Washington and Jerusalem, the spokesman rejected the idea of secret negotiations and warned them not to rebrand what he described as a defeat as an agreement.

Key points

  • The IRGC spokesman explicitly denied that negotiations with Iran were happening.
  • He addressed the United States and Israel directly with the line "Do not call your defeat an agreement".
  • The remarks were published on 25 March 2026.

Why this matters

This exchange is another example of the sharp public messaging coming from Iran's military leadership. Whether or not behind-the-scenes contacts exist, the IRGC wanted to make clear its official stance: no talks to report and no attempt to recast setbacks as victories.

Short version: The IRGC spokesman denied any talks and warned the US and Israel to stop calling defeat an agreement. The situation remains tense and messaging-driven rather than diplomatic at the moment.
