Shocking Statement: Iranian Opposition Slams U.S. Negotiations — ‘Regime Is Not Trustworthy’”

 Exiled Iranian opposition warns Washington that current Iranian leadership cannot be trusted and urges a new strategy amid ongoing tensions.



Kurdish Policy Analysis, Sulaimaniayh, Iraq, 1st April---In a striking interview with Euronews, the exiled leader of the Kurdish Iranian opposition delivered a blunt assessment of ongoing U.S. diplomatic efforts with Tehran — declaring that no figure within the current Islamic Republic can be trusted.

“Butchers and Criminals”: Opposition’s Harsh Verdict

Abdulla Mohtadi, head of the Komala Party of Iranian Kurdistan, emphasized that the leadership in Tehran has lost all moral legitimacy. According to Mohtadi, the current rulers — whom he described as “butchers of the Iranian people” — should not be the subjects of negotiation given their track record of repression and human rights abuses.

Contradictions Between U.S. Claims and Reality

Mohtadi’s remarks come after comments by U.S. President Donald Trump, who suggested that Washington has engaged with “reasonable” Iranian officials during talks. However, Tehran has rebuffed such claims, stating no direct negotiations have taken place, and insisting that there is currently no basis for dialogue.

The Iranian government maintains that any messages from the United States have come through intermediaries and that there remains no formal negotiation channel.

What This Means for U.S. Foreign Policy

The opposition’s stance highlights a growing debate over how — or whether — the United States should engage with Iran’s post‑war leadership. Critics argue that pursuing diplomacy with the existing regime legitimizes a government that violently suppresses dissent and fails to represent the Iranian populace. Proponents of talks, by contrast, argue that some form of engagement is necessary to reduce regional tensions and curtail further escalation.

Regardless of the strategy adopted, Mohtadi’s stark message underscores the deep mistrust toward Tehran’s current political order among segments of the Iranian opposition.

      On March 16, 1988, exactly 38 years ago, the former dictator of Iraq Saddam Hussein and his totalitarian regime launched a weapon of mass destruction and chemical attack on the Kurdish town of Halabja, which at that time was suspected of collaborating with Iran, killing thousands of civilians. Thirty-eight years later, thousands of survivors remain haunted by those traumatic experience,      In that chemical attack,  eleven members of my distant relatives were martyred during the bombing ordered by former dictator Saddam Hussein on March 16, 1988, in the town of Halabja, a Kurdish city located at the edge of eastern Iraq and the high Iranian mountains. I remember we were making home made masks from coals and a piece of cloth shaped like the masks we wore during the Covid-19 Pandemic in preparation for another chemical attach as the regime did not hesitate to crush the Kurdish dissident voices and those who revolted against his tyrannica...
