Iran's President Masoud Pezeshkian expressed willingness on Tuesday to rejoin the ceasefire agreement with the United States if Washington follows suit, in a conciliatory statement after the first clash between the two nations in the past month. The incident occurred during the first exchange of fire between Iran and the U.S. in a month.
The conversation took place on the sidelines of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization summit in Kyrgyzstan. According to Iranian state media, Pezeshkian stated that "if the U.S. returns to its commitments in the memorandum of understanding, the Islamic Republic of Iran will immediately reciprocate." The June memorandum of understanding called for an immediate ceasefire and initiated a 60-day period for negotiations aimed at reaching a broader peace deal.
Under the agreement, Iran committed to clearing the Strait of Hormuz of mines and permitting vessels to pass, while the U.S. pledged to cease its naval blockade, eliminate sanctions, grant waivers for Iranian oil exports, and commence work on a resolution.
