[96140] Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian: Progress in negotiations is conditional on the practical implementation of commitments
Iranian President's statement on the conduct of negotiations
During the day (June 23, 2026), the President of Iran, Masoud Pezeshkian, made a statement on the social network 'X' regarding his country's foreign policy. According to reports, Pezeshkian emphasized that "the effectiveness of negotiations depends on full commitment to agreements and their precise execution," according to a report by Iran International.
The President added that any progress in the process will be measured solely by the "practical implementation of the responsibilities undertaken," and warned that "statements deviating from the agreed-upon text will not help advance the negotiations", as published on the Hamiian Pezeshkian channel (a channel affiliated with supporters of the President).
Pezeshkian's message was widely circulated by a broad range of Iranian media outlets, both state-owned and independent. The Iranian News Agency IRNA and the Student News Agency SNN highlighted the principled aspect of the President's words, while networks such as Al Arabiya Farsi and Akharin Khabar covered the remarks as part of the ongoing diplomatic discourse.
It is evident that this is a public directive intended to delineate the boundaries of the negotiations, with the Iranian regime insisting on strict adherence to existing frameworks in an attempt to prevent external interpretations or statements that could, in their view, harm the diplomatic process.
