Iran has outlined its conditions for ending its conflict with the United States, as communicated through Qatar's mediators, according to Iran's Foreign Affairs Ministry spokesperson, Esmail Baghaei. These conditions, while not entirely new, were reiterated during the ongoing United Nations General Assembly. Baghaei stated that Iran's stance on the Strait of Hormuz and regional security has remained consistent.
The conditions for ending the war include a complete cessation of US aggression, naval blockade, and sanctions, as well as the release of Iran's frozen assets. Baghaei also commented on US President Donald Trump's speech at the UNGA, describing it as repetitive and accusatory, suggesting that it reflected desperation rather than strength.
He further criticized Trump's characterization of Iran as a "number one sponsor of terror" and a "bully of the Middle East". Trump, for his part, vowed not to allow Iran to possess a nuclear weapon, claiming that the US military had decimated Iran's navy, air force, radar, anti-aircraft equipment, missiles, and drone manufacturing capabilities.
He also threatened Iran, questioning whether a potential deal would permit Iran's reconstruction or if the US would swiftly eliminate the Islamic Republic to prevent further harm.
