In a statement addressed to the Iranian people, Khamenei indicated that he initially held reservations concerning the agreement with U.S. President Donald Trump, suggesting the deal was reached through various means.
However, the Supreme Leader announced that he granted permission for the process following assurances from the Iranian President. Khamenei stated that the President, acting in his capacity as chairman of the Supreme National Security Council, guaranteed the protection of Iran’s interests and accepted responsibility for the resulting agreement. The Supreme Leader emphasized that the implementation of the terms outlined in the memorandum is now expected.
Furthermore, Khamenei cautioned that if the American side attempts to exceed the boundaries set by the agreement, the responsibility would not fall upon Iran. Regarding future relations, Khamenei stressed that subsequent negotiations between the two nations would not equate to an acceptance of American positions. He asserted that any future discussions would not imply conceding to the viewpoints of the U.S.
side. These comments follow the signing of the MOU, which aims to initiate a new phase of dialogue between Iran and the U.S. The statements provide a clear, conditional framework for the ongoing diplomatic engagement between the two countries.
