The US-Iran peace agreement cannot be implemented unless the war in Lebanon ends, Seyed Mehdi Tabatabaie, Iran’s Deputy of Communications and Information Dissemination of the President’s Office, has said.
“The continuation of the Zionist regime’s crimes in Lebanon will lead to the invalidation of the entire agreement,” he wrote on X, ahead of today’s talks in Switzerland.
Iran will raise the issue of violations to the initial US-Iran peace deal in this afternoon’s meeting, Iran’s lead negotiator, Mohammad Bagher Baghaei said, as reported by state news agency Fars.
A spokesperson for Iran’s negotiation team said the Iranian delegation’s plan is to continue the talks until tonight, and that they weren’t likely to last any longer.
Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian meanwhile said that Iran’s former Supreme Leader had made it clear that Tehran didn’t want an atomic bomb anyway, regarding US demands that they did not acquire one.
“The only point for America is that we do not have an atomic bomb; this is something that the martyred leader also repeatedly said, we do not want an atomic bomb. America said write this down and sign it, and we signed it,” Pezeshkian said.
