Iran won’t compromise on its rights, top negotiator tells Pakistan

Iran's top negotiator and Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf declared that the nation will not compromise on its rights, asserting this stance during a meeting with Pakistan's army chief in Tehran. Ghalibaf also issued a stern warning, stating that Iran's armed forces have rebuilt their capabilities during the ceasefire and that any foolish restart of the war by the U.S. would result in "more crushing and bitter" consequences. These remarks come as Pakistan's army chief, Asim Munir, engaged in talks with Iranian leadership, with Pakistan serving as a mediator in diplomatic efforts to end the conflict. Pakistani security sources expressed optimism about a potential preliminary understanding between Washington and Tehran. Munir met with Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi late Friday for discussions that extended past midnight. A second meeting on Saturday focused on Iran's proposal, though a foreign ministry spokesperson noted that significant gaps remain. Ghalibaf reiterated that Iran's armed forces have strengthened themselves during the cease-fire period with the United States.
