The Iranian demands are revealed. In response to American proposals, Iran has requested the unblocking of frozen Iranian assets and the end of the war in the entire region, including Lebanon, according to the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs. “The only thing we have demanded are Iran’s legitimate rights,” said the ministry’s spokesperson, Esmaïl Baghaï, as reported by France 24. Tehran also wants the lifting of the American blockade on Iranian ports. Meanwhile, US President Donald Trump deemed the Iranian response “totally unacceptable.”
According to Esmaïl Baghaï, the United States continues to have “unreasonable demands.” He stated that Iran’s response to the American proposal, sent on Sunday to Pakistan, “was not excessive.” “The only thing we have demanded are Iran’s legitimate rights,” he said, referring to the request to end the war and reopen the Strait of Hormuz. “Every time we are forced to fight, we will fight, and every time a diplomatic opportunity arises, we will seize it,” clarified the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokesperson.
According to the Iranian state television website, as noted by RFI, Tehran’s response also included the payment of war reparations and the recognition of Iran’s sovereignty over the Strait of Hormuz. Iran would agree, once these issues are resolved within 30 days, to discuss its nuclear program. However, Tehran would refuse to abandon the program or send its uranium stocks abroad, including the 440 kilograms enriched to 60%.
