Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf has said three key clauses of Iran’s proposed ceasefire framework have been “openly and clearly violated,” arguing that under such conditions a “bilateral ceasefire or negotiations” would be “unreasonable”.
In a post on X, Ghalibaf said the proposal included provisions related to Lebanon, which he noted had been rejected by the White House.
He also referred to a reported drone entering Iran’s southern Fars province. The Israel Defense Forces told the BBC they were “not aware” of such an incident.
As a third point, Ghalibaf said Iran’s right to uranium enrichment was part of the proposal, a position also reflected in a statement from the Supreme National Security Council that was read on state television.
The conflict involving the United States and Israel in Iran began on Feb 28, two days after the latest round of negotiations over Tehran’s nuclear programme.
Unconfirmed reports have suggested that the administration of US President Donald Trump had been considering Ghalibaf as a potential negotiating partner and possibly even a future leader of Iran.
