Oct 11 (Reuters) – Iran described on Saturday the possibility, suggested by U.S. President Donald Trump, that it could normalise relations with Israel as “wishful thinking.”

“Iran will never recognize an occupied regime that has committed genocide and killed children,” Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi told Iranian state television.
