Negotiations between Washington and Tehran remain stalled, despite Pakistani efforts to resume them and prevent a return to war. The head of the Internal Affairs Committee of the Iranian Parliament stated that the conditions set by the Supreme Leader represent a “red line” in any potential negotiations with the United States.
He reiterated that Tehran “does not trust Washington,” according to the Iranian Mehr news agency. He claimed that Washington, through military pressure and sanctions, sought to change the regime, divide Iran, and control its resources, but he said those attempts had failed.
He noted that Tehran refused to participate in the second round of negotiations with the United States, which was scheduled to take place in Pakistan. He explained that Washington had recently proposed lifting the naval blockade in exchange for reopening the Strait of Hormuz to navigation, but the Iranian side insisted on what it described as the “basic conditions” set by the Supreme Leader.
According to him, these conditions include: organized passage through the Strait of Hormuz in coordination with the Iranian armed forces, and ending the war on all fronts and against all parties of the “Axis of Resistance,” as he stated.
They also include the withdrawal of all U.S. combat forces from their bases in the region, as well as the payment of full compensation to Iran. The conditions include lifting all sanctions imposed on Tehran, releasing Iranian funds and assets frozen abroad, and recognizing Iran’s right to enrich uranium. He affirmed that Iran will continue to independently enhance its military and economic capabilities.
President Trump renewed his warnings to Tehran, asserting that “bad things” could happen if an agreement is not reached soon. He previously described the Iranian response to the American proposal as very bad. He confirmed that the blockade on Iranian ports, in effect since April 13, will not be lifted.
Meanwhile, Iran continued its threats against cargo ships in the Strait of Hormuz, after disrupting navigation in this vital waterway since the outbreak of war on February 28.
