ABNA24 - Iran's Foreign Ministry spokesman has categorically dismissed the claim made by US President Donald Trump that Tehran had requested a ceasefire.
“Trump's claim that Iran has requested a ceasefire is false and baseless,” Esmaeil Baghaei said on Wednesday.
The United States and the Israeli regime initiated a new phase of aerial aggression against Iran on February 28. This act of aggression was met with a swift and decisive response from Iran.
Iranian armed forces have launched 89 waves of retaliatory strikes, targeting Israeli-occupied territories and US assets in the region with missiles and drones, demonstrating Iran's resolve and ability to defend its sovereignty.
Notably, this escalation by the US and the Zionist regime occurred while Iran and Washington were engaged in diplomatic talks concerning Iran’s peaceful nuclear program.
Trump made the latest claim in a post on Truth Social on Wednesday, also conditioning any ceasefire on the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz.
The Strait of Hormuz is tightly controlled by Iran since the start of the aggression, with Tehran saying that only vessels belonging to countries that have not joined or supported the aggression can pass through.
