BAKU, Azerbaijan, April 20. Iran has made its
red lines and unacceptable scenarios clear from the start, and
insisting on altering them will not shift Iran's fundamental
stance, said Esmail Baghaei, Iran’s Foreign Ministry spokesperson,
during a press conference held in Tehran on April 20, Trend reports.
He noted that Iran submitted a 10-point proposal in response to
a 15-point plan presented by the United States (U.S.). Following
extensive discussions in Islamabad, the proposal was developed into
a more structured package through mediation efforts.
“Iran remains firm in its logical and just position. The other
side, however, continuously changes its stance and, through media
statements, hinders progress in negotiations,” Baghaei said.
Meanwhile, as no tangible progress was made in the nuclear
negotiations between the U.S. and Iran, the situation escalated on
February 28, when the United States and Israel launched military
airstrikes against Iran. In retaliation, Iran initiated missile and
drone strikes targeting Israeli and U.S. installations in the
region. Following these developments, a two-week ceasefire
agreement was brokered on April 7 through Pakistan's mediation.
However, during subsequent talks between the U.S. and Iran in
Islamabad on April 11, no consensus was reached.
