Iran isn't sure it can trust the US in diplomatic talks after Israel attacked it just two days before a scheduled round of negotiations, Sky News' US partner network NBC.
Araghchi suggested the US may have used talks as a "cover" for Israel's air attack last week.
"So they had perhaps this plan in their mind, and they just needed negotiations perhaps to cover it up," Araghchi said.
"We don鈥檛 know how we can trust them anymore. What they did was, in fact, a betrayal to diplomacy."
Israel launched its first strikes against Iran two days before a sixth round of talks between Washington and Tehran.
