Event details

Iran International reported that parliament speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf said Iran preferred diplomacy but could switch to other language if commitments were broken. The report is a posture warning apparently aimed at Washington after Trump said the United States must respond to the Apache incident.

Context

Ghalibaf's statement keeps Iranian diplomacy conditional and reversible. That makes future U.S. wording, sanctions terms, and public commitments more important than broad claims that a deal is close.
