Iran’s Parliament Speaker Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf emphasized that the United States must make a decision and earn the trust of the Iranian people to resolve the current situation. Qalibaf, speaking to reporters after peace talks in Pakistan with a US delegation, stated that the US needs to compensate the Iranian people for its debts.
Qalibaf highlighted Iran’s stance of reciprocating actions, stating that they are ready to engage in either conflict or dialogue based on the US approach. He emphasized that Iran will not yield to threats and is prepared to demonstrate its resolve.
Describing the talks in Islamabad as intense and fruitful, Qalibaf mentioned that Iran’s delegation, leveraging expert opinions, proposed constructive initiatives to showcase goodwill and facilitate progress in negotiations. He underlined Iran’s longstanding distrust of the US, emphasizing the need for the US to rebuild trust.
Qalibaf dismissed recent threats from US President Donald Trump, asserting that such rhetoric does not affect the Iranian people. Talks between Iran and the US in Islamabad over the weekend did not result in an agreement, following a ceasefire announcement after a period of conflict involving Iran, the US, and Israel.
