⭕️ Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Kazem Gharibabadi:
The immediate and permanent end to the war and military operations on various fronts, including Lebanon, will be announced, starting tonight
From tonight, the end of the US naval blockade against Iran will begin
“The enemy launched this war to achieve its own objectives, but it failed on every front, while the Islamic Republic of Iran achieved major victories.
We have ensured that all of Iran’s key demands and positions are reflected in the draft memorandum of understanding.
Once the agreement is formally signed, the full text will be released publicly. Even before the signing, we will use the news media to explain the contents of the memorandum and outline what Iran has achieved through the negotiations.”
“Some of the revisions we wanted in the draft agreement were advanced by the developments in Lebanon tonight and by the statements issued by Iran’s armed forces, which helped move the negotiations forward.
Iran’s armed forces were fully prepared to deliver a decisive response.
Trump also took positions critical of the Israeli government, while Hezbollah delivered a firm and decisive response to the Israeli regime’s terrorist attack.
The military strength Iran demonstrated, along with the threats of retaliation that were made, helped finalize the text of the agreement and advance several of the remaining issues that still needed to be resolved.”
“We did not agree to the memorandum of understanding until we had secured the inclusion of all of our final points and demands in the text. The negotiations continued until just one hour ago.”
“Under this MOU, Iran’s armed forces will always keep their finger on the trigger.”
“Iran’s armed forces will remain ready at all times to confront any plots or hostile actions by its enemies.”
“The mediating parties will also be present at the upcoming negotiations.”
“If there are any shortcomings in the implementation of the other side’s commitments, we will take our own appropriate measures in response.”
“The 60-day negotiations will begin only after it has been verified that the United States has fulfilled its commitments.
On Friday, there will be a formal signing ceremony, after which the heads of the two delegations will hold talks to determine the framework for the next phase of negotiations.
By that time, the U.S. commitments regarding ending the war, lifting the blockade, and releasing frozen Iranian assets will be assessed and verified.
The launch of the 60-day negotiations is contingent on the implementation of those U.S. commitments.”
“Yesterday, a Qatari delegation was in Tehran to help finalize the negotiations.
More than 15 hours of talks were held, during which we proposed amendments that were ultimately accepted.
Two immediate steps must take place in the early hours of this morning: first, an immediate and permanent end to the war on all fronts, including Lebanon; and second, the end of the naval blockade.
Our own commitments under the agreement will take effect beginning on Friday.”
“The issues to be negotiated during the 60-day period will include the termination of all sanctions against the Islamic Republic of Iran, both primary and secondary sanctions, as well as the lifting of UN Security Council and IAEA Board of Governors resolutions.
If a final agreement is reached, all sanctions will be lifted.
The second major topic for negotiation during the 60-day period will be the nuclear issue.
Economic reconstruction and development will also be discussed during these talks, and a mechanism for implementing them will be finalized.
Another subject will be establishing a mechanism to monitor and verify that both sides are properly implementing their commitments.”
