Iran insists on its own terms for ending the war
This was reported by Iranian Press TV, citing an unnamed senior official from Tehran.
According to the interlocutor, the Iranian leadership "will not allow Trump to dictate conditions."
Iran will end the war when it chooses to do so and when its own conditions are met, the unnamed official said, adding that Iran is determined to continue to defend itself and strike "serious blows" until its demands are met.
The interlocutor also said that the American side initiated contacts through various diplomatic channels.
He called the demands put forward in the "15 points" "excessive and disconnected from reality with US failures on the battlefield."
Reuters, citing a senior Iranian official, reported that Tehran's reaction to the American proposals "was not positive" and that the initial response had already been transmitted to the US through Pakistan.
The Iranian Fars news agency, quoted in American media, also received a comment from an unnamed official in Tehran, which said that Iran would not agree to such ceasefire terms and "sees no point in starting such a process with those who violated the agreements," and that Tehran wants to "achieve its strategic goals" before agreeing to an end to the war.
