TEHRAN: Iran´s supreme leader said on Wednesday that the level of debate between the US presidential election frontrunners showed the "catastrophe" of American politics and warned against any further negotiations with Washington.
"These two candidates (Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump) show the catastrophic reality which goes beyond what even we were saying," Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said in a speech reported on his website.
"Their statements are proof of the destruction of human values in the United States," Khamenei said. "The trampling of human values and human rights, racial discrimination and racism are the reality in American society."
Khamenei´s speech came as Iran marked the 37th anniversary of the storming of the US embassy in Tehran by radical students, who took more than 50 staff hostage for 444 days sparking a rupture of diplomatic relations that lasts to this day.
He said Iran´s continued exclusion from the global banking system despite the lifting of international sanctions under a nuclear deal with world powers showed the United States could not be trusted. "Some people try to develop this dangerous idea that if we compromise with the United States, the problems of our country will be solved," he said.
"The nuclear deal and the attitude of the United States are an example that shows this is not correct."
