No one negotiates on our behalf, and we do not want anyone to negotiate for us—this is something we will not accept.

We are in contact with our friends, demanding a ceasefire and a return to negotiations.

To President Putin: We see you, we see your activity over our cables and our pipelines, and you should know that any attempt to damage them will not be tolerated and will have serious consequences.

The repeated aggression by the Zionist entity against Lebanon is a flagrant violation of the initial ceasefire agreement and a dangerous indicator of deceit and lack of commitment to potential accords.

The continuation of these aggressions will render negotiations meaningless; our hands will remain on the trigger, and Iran will never abandon its Lebanese brothers and sisters.

We set out to dismantle the Iranian regime's ability to project power beyond its own borders, and we clearly accomplished this task.

Iran has suffered a generational military defeat.

None of these people, including our own, very disappointing, NATO, understood anything unless they have pressure placed upon them!!!

Last night was a very critical night because we had no option just to respond to these new [Israeli] atrocities.

Then there were a few back-and-forths and a few messages through Pakistanis, and we hope that America could control its ally and this time honor their words, actually, and be committed to what we agreed.

We hope that we can meet soon in Pakistan to wishfully reach a settlement and agreement for permanent peace in the whole Middle East.

Lebanon is included in the ceasefire. Iran has shown to everybody that it honors its words and tries to commit to what has been agreed upon.

The root cause of all the problems in the Middle East for many decades has been this wreck and rogue behavior of the Israeli regime.

Nobody can think of a lasting peace in the Middle East unless there is an inclusive agreement for everyone involved.

This is not just for Iran; it is the responsibility of everybody to make sure that Lebanon is included in any peace settlement that is going to happen.
