Iran's Ambassador to Ankara Bahman Hosseinpour said Turkish Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan mediation would not be enough to resolve the issues.
"We acknowledge the good will of Mr. Erdogan, we thank him very much. However, the conflicts between the US and Iran are in such an extend that they cannot be resolved through mediation efforts," hurriyet quoted Hosseinpour as saying.
Erdogan proposed Turkey act as a mediator between Iran and the US, two countries who cut their diplomatic relations decades ago.
Hosseinpour said the mediation could only work in the resolution of the problems which are not obvious.
"However it is obvious what we want from the US and vice versa... So (mediation) does not work for our situation," he added.
