During his phone call with PM Shehbaz yesterday, President Pezeshkian expressed appreciation for Pakistan’s sustained efforts to help restore peace in the region.
Referring to recent developments surrounding the ceasefire, Pezeshkian criticised “continued violations and coercive behaviour by the United States during both the negotiations and the ceasefire period”, Mehr said.
He stated that actions related to Washington’s so-called maritime restrictions on Iran constitute a clear breach of the ceasefire understandings and are inconsistent with the United Nations Charter.
He contended that such measures, together with threatening rhetoric, have heightened doubts regarding the US commitment to the diplomatic process.
