Holding talks with US unreasonable: Iran parliament speaker

The deep historical distrust we hold toward the United States stems from its repeated violations of all forms of commitments – a pattern that has regrettably been repeated once again,” said Ghalibaf in a post on his X account on Thursday.
“As the President of the United States has clearly stated in his Truth, the Islamic Republic of Iran's 10-Point Proposal is a ‘workable basis on which to negotiate’ and the main framework for these talks,” he said.
Ghalibaf added, “However, 3 clauses of this proposal have been violated so far:
1.     Non-compliance with the first clause of the 10-Point Proposal regarding the ceasefire in Lebanon - a commitment that Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has also explicitly referred to and declared as ‘an immediate ceasefire everywhere, including Lebanon and other regions, effective immediately’;
2.    The entry of an intruding drone into Iran airspace, which was destroyed in the city of Lar in Fars Province, in clear violation of the clause prohibiting any further violation of Iran airspace;
3.   Denial of Iran's right to enrichment, which was included in sixth clause of the framework.”

He also said now that “the very ‘workable basis on which to negotiate’ has been openly and clearly violated, even before the negotiations began,” a bilateral ceasefire or negotiations is “unreasonable.”
