The Mou – Iran / empire on Tuesday morning
Mr Ghalibaf deals with internal Iranian questions on the MoU on the return flight from Switzerland’s quadrilateral talks:.
The Negotiation Team leaders visited Oman yesterday to tie up loose ends on the future management of the Straits of Hormuz.
Amman: We had constructive discussions with the Iranian delegation about the “memorandum” and the Strait of Hormuz
🔹 The Foreign Minister of Oman described his talks with the Iranian delegation headed by Mohammad Baqer Ghalibaf, Speaker of the Islamic Majlis of Iran to Oman, as constructive and said: “During the meeting with Ghalibaf and Araghchi, we had constructive discussions about the memorandum, especially regarding the Strait of Hormuz.”
[🔹] Oman’s Foreign Minister emphasized our adherence to international law and guaranteeing the safe passage of ships.
Mr Ghalibaf’s speech follows and was harvested from Tasnim. Currently as far as I can see, we do not have a formal version of it.
Qalibaf: The idea of conflict between the military field and the diplomatic field is wrong
****▪️**Without diplomacy, hard work in the field will not bear fruit
🔹 Some friends feel that the field of diplomacy is in conflict with the military field; Basically, this notion is wrong.
🔹 In the military field, whatever success is achieved, we can see its results when that victory is registered and permanent in terms of politics and law. Without diplomacy, hard work in the field will not bear fruit.
[🔹] Sometimes in the military field, conditions are created for the diplomatic field to pursue the same mission that Maidan wanted to carry out, and now it is not possible.
🔹 Negotiation is a method of fighting and continuing fighting; Therefore, the dichotomy between these two fields is a deviant discussion.
We finalized the end of the war and the lifting of the siege by dialogue, using the fighting method and relying on the strength of the field
▪️ We will not abandon it until the territorial integrity of Lebanon is guaranteed
🔹 The trip to Switzerland for the quadripartite talks was right along the military front. Our armed forces won this great victory with pride, strength and courage.
🔹 During the truce and the end of the war, we proceeded with this section through negotiations. If there are any problems in its implementation, we can respond with missiles and resolve it through negotiations.
[🔹] Naturally, all of us, both the armed forces and the diplomatic apparatus, are in regular contact with each other. I am not a diplomat either; I am a warrior.
🔹 We followed diplomacy and you saw that we finalized the end of the war and the lifting of the siege by dialogue, by the method of struggle and by relying on the power of the field. The field of diplomacy and field are complementary to each other.
[🔹] In the Lebanon issue, since we entered the Swiss negotiations, we have seen that the enemy’s fire against Lebanon has stopped and most of the people have returned to their homes.
Forcing Trump to amend his tweet regarding the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz was the result of the combination of soft power and hard power of the Islamic Republic
🔹 We were and still are distrustful of Americans, and it is a condition of reason that we should be distrustful in the future as well. In the talks with the American side, we moved with a specific roadmap and model, and paragraph 13 of the understanding was included, according to which, due to the lack of trust in the American side, the actions of the United States in paragraphs 1, 4, 5, 10 and 11 should be carried out immediately after the signing of the understanding, or at least their executive operations should be started to make sure that the work has started; Then let’s get into other topics.
[🔹] One of the good deeds of our colleagues in the negotiating team was that two big things happened and the siege was lifted at the same time as the memorandum was signed. If we wanted to do this with a military method, it would naturally be a war and damage would follow; But you saw that the siege was solved overnight.
🔹 After signing the understanding, Trump announced that the Strait of Hormuz is free from tonight; While according to paragraph 4 of the understanding, he should have been released within 30 days and according to Iran’s conditions. It is the power of the Islamic Republic that we were able to force Trump to correct the tweet he published, and this is the result of the combination of our soft and hard power.
Releasing the blocked money and lifting the oil embargo was finalized in the trip to Switzerland
🔹 In order to release the blocked assets, two amounts of 6 billion dollars should be released in paragraph 11, which was previously done during the trip to Qatar, but the final signing should take place during the trip to Switzerland, which was done.
[🔹] Regarding paragraph 10, the issue of selling crude oil, petrochemicals and its derivatives, as well as banking, insurance and transportation issues are discussed. Since the agreement has not yet been finalized, the sanctions are still in place; Therefore, based on the signed agreement, the oil embargoes were lifted until the final agreement was reached.
🔹 Another important topic was the framework of how to follow up the implementation of the clauses of the understanding until the end of 60 days, which also came to a conclusion. Arrangements were made for Iranian and American delegations to meet and follow up on these issues and their implementation.
According to Swiss negotiations, Iran and the US must both guarantee the territorial integrity of Lebanon
▪️ The Zionist regime strongly opposes the negotiation process; because he sees his own destruction in this path
🔹 In the memorandum, the end of the war in Iran and its allies, that is, the resistance front, was emphasized. The end of the war was established in our territory, although we had challenges in the Strait of Hormuz. Of course, the naval blockade also occurred during the truce period, which is a kind of war.
🔹 These events happened in Lebanon in a different way; Military attacks continued and Dahiya disasters occurred when we responded to Israel with missiles.Because the red line was that there should be no attack on Beirut and a ceasefire should be established in southern Lebanon.
[🔹] The Zionist regime strongly opposes the negotiation process; Because he sees his own destruction in this path and wants to disrupt it.
🔹 With our entry into the Swiss negotiations and follow-ups, both the volume of fire decreased and it stopped within two days.In the negotiations, we reached the conclusions that both Iran and the United States must guarantee the territorial integrity of Lebanon.
[🔹] The guarantee of territorial integrity was also mentioned in the memorandum and it should be followed up to be implemented.For this reason, it was decided to create a center for coordination so that the issues can be resolved, the Lebanese people can return to their homes and the Zionist forces can withdraw from the Lebanese soil.
If we didn’t go to Switzerland, more blood would be shed every moment from the Muslims and Shiites of Lebanon.
🔹 “Beh Vaght Iran” program is honestly one of the good programs in the undergraduate field.Of course, I have some criticisms of it, but overall it is a good program.
[🔹] I saw that it was announced in this program that I wish they would close the Mehrabad airport so that the negotiating team does not go to Switzerland.I tell those dear ones, if we had not gone to Switzerland, more blood would have been spilled every moment from the Muslims and Shiites of Lebanon.
The Strait of Hormuz will be managed by Iranian arrangements and by Iran
▪️ Establishment of a hotline to solve the problems of ships
🔹 I was one of the first people who said clearly at the beginning of the war that everyone should know that the administration of the Strait of Hormuz will never return to its pre-war status. Of course, international laws will be respected and the Strait of Hormuz will be managed by Iran in compliance with these laws and with Iranian arrangements.
🔹 problems may arise in the Strait of Hormuz; Therefore, we agreed to establish a center and establish a telephone line so that, in the 30-day period, if there are any problems, we can solve the problems more quickly. God willing, the economy of the region will prosper.
[🔹] This hotline is not for authorization; It has its own route license. This line is only for solving problems of ships or possible accidents to clarify. This is also because the management of the strait is with Iran and we will fix the problems.
The story of the Iranian team not showing up in the same frame with the American side and leaving the negotiation meeting after Trump’s threats
🔹 We have principles and we have never, until this moment, wanted to be in the same frame with the Americans. The friends of the mediator in this discussion insisted that this is the beginning of talks, but we clearly stated that we will not appear in this frame and we will come only to negotiate, without being in the same frame.
[🔹] In the middle of the conversation, I realized that Trump had spoken threateningly about the president, the negotiating team, and the attack on our land. I told Vance that we are having a conversation here and based on the signed understanding, the first paragraph states that there should be no threats or force; But today the president has threatened you. Know that we never negotiate under threats and force. We finished the negotiation, left the meeting and never returned to the meeting.
🔹 The American side insisted on holding another meeting with the presence of mediators, which we did not accept. Qatari and Pakistani mediators came to us and we told them that we will talk to you, but not to the American side. The conclusion of these 80-minute talks and negotiations was a statement released by the Pakistani and Qatari sides.
Discussion of stopping the war in Lebanon, management of the Strait of Hormuz, release of blocked funds and removal of oil embargoes were among the achievements of the Swiss trip
🔹 Our armed forces need to be modernized, and I will do my part in this area to ensure that due attention is given to the zealous military forces in the matter of equipment and personnel.
[🔹] The next field is the street field, which both the military and diplomatic fields need, and this field is honestly a great movement that has occurred.
We must have unity around the axis of the province
▪️ We must know that the chapter of al-Khattab is the word and command of the leader
🔹 Criticism and knowledge is the right of all people. Of course, since we are at war, if we want to tell everything so that people will be aware, the enemy will also be aware of our secrets to the same extent.
🔹 Therefore, we are forced not to explain many things, not because of distrust of people, but because the enemy does not take advantage.
[🔹] We are all under the orders of the leadership and we must avoid any marginalization. We have a common enemy and we must have unity around the axis of the province.Not unity on things we like.
🔹 Unity is the command of leadership; Whether in war, in peace, in negotiation or in the cultural field.We must know that the chapter of speech is the word and order of leadership.
