In a post on X on Monday night, President Pezeshkian wrote, “Mutual understanding is a two-way street. If the American side adheres to the agreement, we will also fulfill our commitments.”
“Our approach to unreasonable saber-rattling and baseless threats is to rely on rationality and human dignity in decision-making, and to defend decisively and fearlessly when it comes time to act.”

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian
Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian has said that any agreement between Iran and the United States must be rooted in mutual respect and reciprocal commitments, not threats or one-sided pressure.
In a post on X on Monday night, President Pezeshkian wrote, “Mutual understanding is a two-way street. If the American side adheres to the agreement, we will also fulfill our commitments.”
“Our approach to unreasonable saber-rattling and baseless threats is to rely on rationality and human dignity in decision-making, and to defend decisively and fearlessly when it comes time to act.”
The comments follow claims in US media and a post by President Donald Trump on Truth Social suggesting that representatives from both sides would meet in Doha on Tuesday to address remaining differences, including issues related to the Strait of Hormuz.
As negotiations proceed, the initiative now rests firmly with Washington. Iran has demonstrated its seriousness about reciprocal commitments, the question remains whether the American side is prepared to do the same.
