Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Qalibaf has lashed out at US President Donald Trump, stating that he had made seven false claims in just one hour. In a statement, Qalibaf said that such claims cannot make the US a victor and that they will not lead to progress in negotiations. He warned that if the US continues to impose obstacles in the Strait of Hormuz, the Iranian oil terminals will not be opened.
Qalibaf emphasized that the operation of ships in the Strait of Hormuz will follow specific routes, and Iran’s permission will be required for this. He also stated that whether the Strait of Hormuz is open or closed, and whatever regulations are in place, they will be determined by the situation on the ground, not on social media.
The Iranian Parliament Speaker also touched on the issue of misinformation and the manipulation of public opinion through media, saying that it is an essential part of war. However, he stressed that the Iranian people are not swayed by these tactics. Qalibaf advised that for accurate information on the negotiations, people should watch the interviews of the Iranian Foreign Ministry’s spokesperson.
