Iran has denied holding any talks with France or any other country over its ballistic missile programme.
Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Bahram Qasemi told a weekly news conference in Tehran, that his country is not holding secret or open talks with any country on its missile programme, which is purely defensive in nature.
The clarification from Iran came after Paris threatened Tehran to impose more sanctions if European attempts to address the program in discussions with Tehran made no progress.
