00:00No government in Iran can commit the country beyond the international law.
00:05I told and I will repeat it again.
00:09Do you have any questions of the folks at any?
00:14Now we are focusing on finalizing the framework of understanding between two sides.
00:22We hope that as soon as we can finalize that, then we can move on to the next step.
00:31I urge all the media to be a little bit patient and be careful about all the fluctuations
00:38and all ups and downs on daily things, things are a little bit sensitive these days.
00:45But I can assure you that Iran is very much committed to diplomacy.
00:48The point is that the other side should abandon its maximalist position
00:54and should respect the international law within which we can then secure diplomacy to be result-oriented.
01:01Until we agree on the framework, we cannot set the date.
01:06As soon as we agree, there was significant progress made.
01:12But then this maximalist approach by the other side trying to make Iran an exception in international law
01:19prevented us to reach an agreement.
01:20I have to be very crystal clear that Iran would not accept to be an exception from the international law.
01:28Anything that we are going to be committed, we are going to commit within these international regulations.
01:33After the ceasefire in Lebanon accepted, based on the terms and conditions of the ceasefire,
01:38we announced that safe passage of commercial vessels with coordination of our maritime authorities is possible.
01:50Then the other side, the American side, tried to sabotage that by saying that it is open except for Iranians.
01:56So that was the reason that we said that if you are going to violate the ceasefire terms and conditions
02:01and if Americans are not going to honor their words, then there will be repercussions for them.
02:07And unfortunately, they are still trying to exhaust negotiation through negotiation,
02:13exhaust diplomacy through the circus of diplomacy.
02:16If we are on a regular basis, if there is an agreement that we have in the current area of
02:22our foreign country,
02:22then we are in control of the international government.
02:26Now we have two or three days.
02:29We are in control of the Korean Highway of Islam.
02:31For everything, we are in control of everything.
02:33And we are in control of Iran people.
02:34For everything we have to go to Iran.
02:34Of course, it is the explanation of the international government.

04:45But we're talking to them.
04:46They wanted to close up the strait again, you know, as they've been doing for years.
