Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf has ruled out fresh negotiations with the United States until five key provisions of the recently signed peace MoU are implemented, including ending the war in Lebanon, lifting the US naval blockade, reopening the Strait of Hormuz, waivers for Iranian oil exports, and release of frozen assets.
Iran and the United States have opened negotiations in Islamabad, with discussions centred on a Lebanon ceasefire, the release of frozen Iranian assets, and security in the Strait of Hormuz. Iranian officials insist that Washington must hold Israel accountable for ceasefire violations, while warning that prioritising Israeli interests could derail talks.
