Iran's Parliament Speaker and chief negotiator Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf has said Tehran will not agree to any deal with the United States unless it can guarantee the protection of the Iranian people's rights, according to state media reports.
Speaking during a virtual parliamentary session on Sunday, Ghalibaf stressed that Iran remains sceptical of US assurances and will judge any agreement based on concrete outcomes rather than promises.
"We do not trust the enemy's statements and commitments," he said, adding that Iran's primary condition is to see tangible results before fulfilling its own obligations under any potential agreement.
Ghalibaf made the remarks after being sworn in for another term as speaker of parliament along with other members of the parliamentary leadership.
