Iran's Firm Stance: US Demand for Complete Acceptance Dismissed as Illogical
According to reports from Iranian official media, the spokesperson for Iran's Foreign Ministry recently issued a clear statement regarding diplomatic exchanges with the United States. The spokesperson stated that the so-called "package deal" proposed by the US, coupled with the expectation that Iran would accept it in its entirety without modification, is "fundamentally impossible."
The spokesperson further emphasized that this American position "completely contradicts the basic logic of international negotiation and diplomatic dialogue," revealing a profound difference in the approaches to resolving issues.
Iran Presents Its Own Plan: Ten-Point Terms in Response
While criticizing the US proposal, Iran also proactively disclosed its own diplomatic actions. It is reported that Iran had previously used Pakistan as a communication channel to formally submit a draft ceasefire agreement containing ten specific clauses to the United States.
This draft was explicitly presented as a direct response to an earlier American "ceasefire plan." Analysts suggest this move indicates Iran is not merely reacting passively but is actively putting forward its own framework and conditions, attempting to seize some initiative in the negotiations.
- Core Disagreement: Conflict between the US's预设 of "complete acceptance" and Iran's principle of "reciprocal negotiation."
- Diplomatic Channel: Iran chose a third party (Pakistan) to convey its proposal.
- Outlook: Both sides have tabled their plans, but the significant gap in core positions casts a shadow over future talks.
This diplomatic statement once again highlights the structural contradictions between the US and Iran. Whether the two sides can find a mutually acceptable basis for negotiation will be a key factor in observing the future development of regional tensions.
