Iran Rules Out Agreements Under Military Threats

Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) stated today that Tehran will not sign any agreements while threats of military action against the country persist.

The Sepah News website, linked to the IRGC, quoted an official familiar with the negotiations. Also who attributed the difficulties in reaching an understanding with Oman. Regarding the Strait of Hormuz to US interference and statements by President Donald Trump.

“As long as US interference and the threat of a military attack against Iran continue, reaching an agreement will be delayed. Iran will not sign any agreement under threats,” the source stated.
Tehran resumed talks with Muscat last Monday to establish mechanisms that guarantee the safe passage of ships through this strategic waterway.

Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmail Baghaei announced yesterday technical and political progress in consultations with Oman. Although he clarified that a final agreement has not yet been reached.

Iran and Oman share geographical and legal responsibilities over the Strait of Hormuz. One of the world’s main shipping routes for oil, gas, and goods.

The negotiations are taking place amid heightened tensions between Tehran and Washington. Following the US and Israeli attacks on Iranian territory on February 28th.
According to Iranian authorities, these attacks resulted in more than 3,000 deaths. While Tehran responded with attacks on US and Israeli targets.

Washington and Tehran signed a memorandum of understanding on June 18th and began talks to reach a final agreement. But differences over security and freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz stalled the process.

Between July 8th and 24th, the United States carried out renewed attacks against Iran. Which answered by targeting US military installations and equipment in several Arab countries, according to Iranian sources.
