Why It Matters
At the UN General Assembly, the Iranian delegation, under the mediation of Qatar, presented 7 conditions to the USA for the Strait of Hormuz.
Kalibaf made evaluations about the agenda in the Parliament's open session to the press. Qalibaf claimed that the USA knew Iran's determination well and increased the threat rhetoric in addition to economic pressure and military initiatives to create perception in the domestic public.
Kalibaf said that contrary to the statements of the Americans in the media, they made a proposal to Iran through mediators, and added: "They need to know that the period of making unilateral demands is over and that the Strait of Hormuz will not be opened unless the 7 conditions offered by Iran are implemented." he said.
According to Iran's official news agency IRNA, Qalibaf said that his country determines policy based on facts, not threatening statements on social media, and stated that the "contradictory" statements made by the Americans aim to confuse the Iranian people.
