00:08In a dramatic new statement, Masood Pezishkian, the president of Iran, has laid down three strict
00:16conditions to end the war. And according to Iran, there will be no ceasefire unless these demands
00:22are met. The latest message from President Masood Pezishkian came after discussions with leaders
00:28from Russia and Pakistan, and was posted publicly on X, Twitter. In the statement, Iran accused the
00:36Zionist regime and the United States of igniting the war, and said the conflict can only end through
00:42a permanent political resolution, not a temporary ceasefire. And according to Tehran, there are three
00:49non-negotiable conditions. Demand number one, recognition of Iran's rights. First, Iran says
00:56the world must recognize its legitimate rights. In diplomatic terms, this is widely interpreted
01:04as Iran's right to continue nuclear enrichment for peaceful purposes under the Nuclear Non-Proliferation
01:09Treaty. Iran has repeatedly insisted that it will never abandon its nuclear program, even
01:15though it maintains the program is not meant for nuclear weapons. But beyond nuclear technology,
01:21analysts say this demand could also imply recognition of Iran's broader regional influence,
01:26in the Middle East. In other words, Tehran wants the conflict to end without forcing it to
01:32surrender its strategic ambitions. Demand number two, reparations. The second demand is financial
01:40compensation. Iran says the United States and Israel must pay reparations for damages caused by the
01:46ongoing bombardment, including civilian casualties, destroyed infrastructure, and economic losses.
01:53This demand dramatically raises the stakes, because it would mean the attacking countries must accept
01:58responsibility for the war's destruction. And historically, such reparations are rarely
02:03accepted by military powers during active conflicts. Demand number three, guarantees against future
02:09attacks. The third demand may be the most complicated. Iran wants binding international guarantees that the
02:16U.S. or Israel will never launch attacks again. These guarantees could potentially involve the United
02:22Nations or major global powers acting as security guarantors. Iran has specifically warned that Israel
02:28might resume strikes even after a ceasefire, which is why Tehran says temporary pauses are not enough.
02:34They want a permanent end to the war. Why Iran is taking a hard line? Iran has already rejected proposals
02:41for an
02:41unconditional ceasefire or any deal that resembles unconditional surrender. Those terms were
02:46reportedly floated by Donald Trump. But Iranian officials say negotiating while attacks continue makes no sense.
02:52And intelligence assessments suggest Iran is not collapsing under pressure. What U.S. intelligence says,
02:58according to reports from Reuters, U.S. intelligence believes that despite weeks of heavy bombardment,
03:02Iran's leadership structure remains largely intact. The government still controls the country, and the Islamic Revolutionary Guard
03:08core continues to command military operations. Subscribe to One India and never miss an update.
