Pezzekian: We are ready to implement the agreement on the Strait of Hormuz if Iran's proposal is accepted

According to Kurd Press, in an interview with CBS News' "Face the Nation" program, in response to a question about the possibility of meeting with US President Donald Trump in New York, Iranian President Masoud Pezzekian said that an "air of distrust" has formed between Iran and the United States.When asked if he was willing to meet with Trump during the UN General Assembly, the doctor said that first of all, it must be clear on what exactly the two sides intend to reach an understanding.

He stressed that the distrust between the two countries is a significant obstacle to a direct meeting, noting that the US attacked Iran during the negotiations.

He also said that if the US accepts Iran’s latest proposal to open the Strait of Hormuz, Tehran will adhere to its commitments.Referring to the increase in US sanctions, threats and attacks against Iran and Washington's failure to fulfill its written commitments, Medesian asked whether the US would fulfill its commitments if the two sides entered into negotiations.

The process of opening the Strait of Hormuz begins after Iran accepts its proposal

In response to a question about the time of receiving the US response to Iran's proposal to open the Strait of Hormuz and resume negotiations, Medesian said that if this message reaches the US President and the parties involved in the negotiations, the process of implementing the proposal will begin on the day Washington accepts it.

He also held the US responsible for the collapse of the memorandum of understanding reached in the summer.

Regarding the possibility of an initial agreement between Iran and the US, Medesian also said that if the two sides act according to the framework of this agreement, everyone will adhere to their commitments.Iran to Allow UN Nuclear Inspectors
