BREAKING: IRAN ANNOUNCES 6 DEMANDS TO END WAR

1. Binding guarantee must be established so that war will not be repeated, rejecting temporary ceasefire

2. Immediate closure of U.S. military bases across the region

3. Aggressors must pay compensation for damages inflicted during the war

4. End all ongoing wars across regional fronts

5. Establish a new legal regime governing the Strait of Hormuz

6. Prosecution and extradition of individuals affiliated with hostile media operations targeting Iran

THE DEAL ON THE TABLE

🇺🇸 U.S. asks Iran to:

– Dismantle Natanz, Fordow and Isfahan
– Zero enrichment. Forever. Hand all uranium to IAEA
– Cap ballistic missiles in range and quantity
– Cut off Hezbollah, Houthis and Hamas completely
– Reopen the Strait. Fully. Now.
– 30-day ceasefire to start

In return: Sanctions relief and possible civilian nuclear cooperation.

🇮🇷 Iran asks the U.S. to:

– Stop all strikes and assassinations immediately
– Provide binding guarantees never to attack again
– Pay war reparations
– Recognize Iran’s sovereignty over the Strait of Hormuz
– Touch nothing: nuclear program, missiles, proxies. All off the table
– American bases out of the region
– Cessation of hostilities againt Iran and Hezbollah
– Lifting of Sanctions

These are two sides describing completely different wars.

The U.S. wants Iran defanged. Iran wants the U.S. gone and billed for the visit.
