Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said Iran won’t engage the U.S. in any issue beyond the nuclear program and renewed his attacks on Israel, saying the “Zionist regime” won’t exist in 25 years.

“We only agreed, for specific reasons, to negotiations with the U.S. on the nuclear matter,” Khamenei told a gathering of Iranian citizens, according to his website. “We have not allowed talks in other areas and we won’t negotiate with them.”
