TechFlow News, March 25: According to Iran’s state-controlled Press TV, Iranian government officials issued a statement rejecting the U.S. proposal and affirming that the war will end only on Iran’s own terms and timeline. A senior Iranian official familiar with internal government affairs stated that Iran will not allow Trump to dictate when the war ends. He further emphasized Tehran’s firm resolve to continue its defensive operations and deliver “heavy blows” against the enemy until its demands are met.
The official outlined five specific conditions under which Iran would agree to end the war: ① Complete cessation of the adversary’s “aggression and assassination” operations; ② Establishment of concrete mechanisms to ensure the war is never again imposed upon Iran; ③ Guarantees and clearly defined procedures for payment of compensation and reconstruction costs resulting from the war; ④ Cessation of hostilities across all fronts and across all resistance groups involved throughout the region; ⑤ International recognition and guarantee of Iran’s sovereign right to exercise jurisdiction over the Strait of Hormuz. Iran has communicated to all well-intentioned mediators that acceptance of all these conditions is a prerequisite for any ceasefire. The official stressed: “No negotiations will take place before this,” and reiterated that Iran’s defensive actions will continue until all the above conditions are fulfilled. (Jinshi)
