Iran’s Foreign Ministry on Tuesday stipulated that clear security guarantees are a prerequisite for any agreement to a ceasefire with the United States and Israel.
According to the Iranian newspaper Shargh, Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Kazem Gharibabadi said that “any truce or end to the war must be accompanied by pledges not to repeat attacks on Iran,” warning that “the absence of such guarantees makes talk of a ceasefire meaningless.”
The Iranian official stressed that “his country was not the party that initiated any act of war,” noting that “the missile attacks carried out by his country came within the framework of legitimate self-defense, based on the provisions of Article 51 of the United Nations Charter.”
Gharibabadi revealed that “the past few days have witnessed active diplomatic efforts led by China, Russia and France, along with a number of regional countries, to mediate and bring the views of the concerned parties closer together.”
