Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei urged Iranian nuclear negotiators on Wednesday to stick to the country's redlines in the ongoing talks with the world powers aimed at reaching a deal by June 30, Xinhua news agency reported.

"We do not accept the talks which are under the apparition of the threats," Khamenei said, urging Iranian negotiators "to negotiate (with the powers) observing the redlines and not to succumb to humiliation, threats and imposition".

The era of coercion is already over and the Iranian nation will chase the aggressors, he said reacting to the military threats against the country over its controversial nuclear programme.
