The comments by Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, while couched, represented his endorsement of the talks so far. 

Iran’s supreme leader said on Tuesday that the first round of talks with the US went “well”, in his first public comment on the negotiations.

The comments by Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, while couched, represented his endorsement of the talks so far. 

However, the 85-year-old said the talks had been “implemented well in the first steps” and that Iran remained “pessimistic” about America. 

He also urged officials “not to tie the country’s affairs” to the talks, which are scheduled to have a second round on Saturday.
