Ghalibaf Outlines Two Crucial Preconditions for Upcoming Negotiations

Tehran - BORNA - Ghalibaf shared a statement in English on his official X (formerly Twitter) account, outlining Tehran’s expectations regarding the current diplomatic process:

"Two of the measures agreed upon by the parties have not yet been realized: a ceasefire in Lebanon and the release of Iran's frozen assets prior to the start of negotiations. These two issues must be fulfilled before the talks begin."

The Speaker's remarks come at a sensitive time as regional mediators work to stabilize the fragile truce following the 40-day conflict. The insistence on the release of frozen assets and a cessation of hostilities in Lebanon reflects Tehran's broader strategy to ensure that diplomacy is backed by tangible actions on the ground.

Observers note that these preconditions are likely to be the primary focus of Iranian diplomats as they prepare for high-level meetings scheduled to take place in Islamabad.
