New Delhi:
Less than 24 hours after US President Donald Trump claimed that the US and Iran have had two days of “very good and productive conversations” regarding a complete resolution of the conflict in the Middle East, Tehran’s military command has said, “Do not call your defeat an agreement”, raising question marks on any breakthrough and prolonging global uncertainty over the war in the Middle East.
Al Jazeera has reported that an Iranian military spokesperson has dismissed Trump’s remarks about talks. “Do not call your defeat an agreement. There will be no sign of your investments in the region, nor will you see the previous prices of energy and oil until you understand that stability in the region is guaranteed by the powerful hand of our armed forces. Stability comes through force,” the spokesperson of the joint military command said.
“We clearly declare that no situation will return to the way it was before until we will it. And our first and last words from the very first day have been this – someone like us will never come to terms with someone like you, not now, and not in the future,” he said, adding, “Have your self-entanglements reached the stage where you’re negotiating with yourselves?”
