🇮🇷🤝🇱🇧 Iranian state news agency, Fars: Iran will not come to the negotiating table unless Israel stops attacking Lebanon
An informed source, in an interview with Fars reporter following up on the negotiation axes, stated: Tehran considers the option of negotiating with Washington off the table until a complete ceasefire is established in Lebanon, and it has strongly asserted this position.
According to this informed source, one of the operational options on the table is keeping the Strait of Hormuz closed. He added: "According to statistics and field monitoring since this morning, it is clear that this strategic maritime route remains closed, and this situation will continue until a full ceasefire with Lebanon is achieved."
It is worth mentioning that following Iran's decisive positions, clear signs of Netanyahu's retreat are becoming evident.
Vitkoff's remarks this afternoon recommending Netanyahu to accept the field realities, as well as Netanyahu's recent statements which, though veiled threats, clearly indicate compliance with the Lebanon ceasefire, are signs of a shift in the American-Zionist stance.
