Iran announces 4 demands to end conflict with US, Israel
Iran’s Ambassador to Russia Kazem Jalali said on Wednesday that Tehran has four demands for the US and Israel in order to achieve long-term peace in the Middle East.
The list includes four points, Jalali said in an interview with the Russian state news agency Tass.
“First, a final and complete cessation of aggression and terrorist acts. Second, the provision of objective and credible guarantees to prevent any recurrence of aggression and war. Third, full compensation for material and moral damages. Fourth, respect for Iran’s legal jurisdiction in the Strait of Hormuz in order to protect international maritime security,” the diplomat said.
The ambassador thanked Russia and other countries for their efforts to end the conflict.
“While highly appreciating the role and efforts of mediators, we believe that peace depends solely on the observance of these obligations,” Jalali emphasized.
According to him, “The Islamic Republic of Iran has always welcomed any constructive and sincere efforts to establish stability and security in the region.
“However, it should be emphasized that any initiative or proposed plan to achieve a just peace and a lasting ceasefire requires taking into account the realities on the ground and the fulfillment of these legal and political conditions and demands.”
Jalali said: “Iran will continue to exercise its inherent right to self-defense until the source of the threat is completely eliminated.”
“As for consultations with partners, Tehran always includes exchanging views and coordination with its strategic allies, including Russia, on its diplomatic agenda,” he added.
