JAKARTA - Deputy Foreign Minister of Iran Majid Takht-Ravanchi said that the 10-point framework proposed by his party had been accepted as the basis for future negotiations with the United States, according to state media, Friday (10/4).
He stressed that Iran would not support a ceasefire without guarantees against new aggression.
In a meeting with foreign diplomats in Tehran, Takht-Ravanchi said Iran remained committed to diplomacy and dialogue, but rejected processes based on misleading information or paving the way for further military action.
"Iran has always welcomed diplomacy and dialogue," he said, quoting Antara, while stressing that negotiations should not be an excuse for new aggression.
He also rejected a ceasefire that would allow the opposing side to rearm.
The framework includes recognition of Iran's right to enrich uranium, lifting of US sanctions, withdrawal of US troops from the Middle East, and ending hostilities on all fronts, including in Lebanon.
Tensions have been rising since the US and Israeli attacks on Iran on February 28, which Iran responded to with drone and missile attacks and restrictions on shipping in the Strait of Hormuz.
The United States and Iran have previously agreed to a two-week ceasefire mediated by Pakistan as a step towards a broader deal.
