The interaction between Iran and the U.S. in New York was conducted to convey the conditions of the Islamic Republic of Iran to the American side. Ismail Baqaei, spokesperson for the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, stated in an interview about the details of these negotiations that Qatar has acted as the main mediator in this process.
Iran's Conditions for Ending Wars and Aggressive Actions
Baqaei emphasized that this interaction includes conditions such as ending the war on all fronts, stopping aggressive actions by the U.S., freeing Iran's assets, as well as addressing economic concerns and maritime blockade. He stressed that these conditions have been clearly communicated to the American side.
The spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs also referred to the bilateral meetings of Dr. Zarif, the Iranian Foreign Minister, on the sidelines of the 81st session of the United Nations General Assembly. These meetings have provided an opportunity to review bilateral relations and consult on regional and international developments.
Reactions to Donald Trump's Statements and Media Claims
In response to the remarks of Donald Trump, the President of the United States, Baqaei said that these statements stem from desperation and weakness, not authority. He added that turning the United Nations General Assembly into a stage for expressing illegal claims reflects the ineffectiveness of current U.S. policies.
The spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs also addressed some media controversies surrounding the request for special protective measures for the Iranian delegation, explaining that these claims were incorrect and resulted from misunderstandings. Baqaei emphasized that the U.S. government, as the host of the United Nations, fulfills its responsibilities in this regard and that there has been no specific request from Iran.
Maintaining Iran's Seat in the General Assembly as a Diplomatic Stronghold
Baqaei further pointed out the importance of Iran's seat in the United Nations General Assembly, stating that this seat is a diplomatic stronghold and diplomats must carry out their duties under all circumstances. He urged media colleagues to maintain fairness in their judgments and reminded that diplomats should monitor developments in such environments and take appropriate reactions.
Finally, Baqaei emphasized that the Iranian delegation in New York has conveyed its views and conditions to the American side through the Qatari mediator, and this matter has been clearly communicated to them. These negotiations are a continuation of Iran's previous efforts to ensure security and protect national interests on an international level.
