Ending the war on all fronts is among Iran’s demands; Washington must choose one path, peace or war, says the Iranian Foreign Minister
TEHRAN (Voice of Russia): Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has said that Iran’s two-day proposal to open the Strait of Hormuz still stands, and if the United States meets Tehran’s demands, it will see the results. He made clear that Iran’s demands include ending the war on all fronts.
In a statement on the social media platform X after the results of the US midterm elections held on 3 November, the Iranian Foreign Minister said that American voters have made their decision, and now the time has come for the White House to make its decision too.
Abbas Araghchi said that Iran’s two-day proposal to open the Strait of Hormuz remains in place. If the US meets Iran’s demands, including ending the war on all fronts, it will see the results.
Warning the United States, the Iranian Foreign Minister said that if Washington chooses the path of war, it will face harsh action from Iran’s vigilant and battle-experienced fighters.
In his statement, Abbas Araghchi said that the US has a choice: either accept Iran’s demands and see the results, or choose the path of war and face its consequences.
Earlier, on 1 November, the Iranian Foreign Minister had said that Tehran was consulting with mediators on its plan regarding the Strait of Hormuz, but those talks had produced no final result.
Abbas Araghchi had also said earlier that during the negotiations, Iran had agreed to reduce the implementation period of the plan to open the Strait of Hormuz to two days.
According to the Iranian Foreign Minister’s latest statement, the two-day proposal to open the Strait of Hormuz is still under consideration, and progress on it depends on Washington meeting Tehran’s demands.
