Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baqaei said during a press conference on Monday that all components of Iran, with full commitment, are vigilantly following every process.
Responding to a question from IRNA’s correspondent, Baqaei said, “We must be cautious of the enemy’s conspiracies, and this, in my view, is the rational duty of the negotiating team and the entire system of governance.”
Addressing concerns about whether the current ceasefire and US insistence on limiting exchanges could be a “deception” aimed at resuming the war, he stressed that Iran cannot ignore recent experiences.
“We certainly cannot forget the very costly experience we have had over the past year; not even for a moment,” he said.
He added, “We cannot forget that the United States, on two occasions in less than nine months, betrayed diplomacy during negotiations, violated international law in the most severe manner, attacked Iran’s territorial integrity, martyred many of our prominent figures and Iranian citizens, and caused damage to Iran’s assets.”
The United States and Israel launched a war of aggression against Iran on February 28, assassinating Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei and several top military commanders.
On April 8, after 40 days of war, Iran and the US reached a two-week ceasefire brokered by Pakistan.
