He stressed that Iran remains open to diplomacy, provided that the issues raised are genuine, adding that the country has consistently welcomed diplomatic engagement and has not failed to pursue it with any party.
Gharibabadi emphasized that Iran’s readiness to defend itself and engage in a fight is no less than its readiness to negotiate.
He said Tehran’s continued participation in negotiations demonstrates its political flexibility and commitment to the diplomatic process. However, he stressed that the United States must return to fulfilling its obligations.
According to the deputy foreign minister, Iran has not violated any of its commitments, while Washington has failed to honor its obligations under the Islamabad memorandum of understanding (MoU) and must take compensatory measures.
Gharibabadi added that as long as the United States has fully violated its commitments, Iran cannot be expected to demonstrate greater flexibility on the matter.
