Iran Signals Willingness to Reciprocate US Commitments at SCO SummitPreviousNext

At the 26th Shanghai Cooperation Organisation Summit in Bishkek, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian stated that Iran would immediately reciprocate if the United States honored its commitments under a June Memorandum of Understanding. He criticized US and Israeli actions against Iran as violations of international law and highlighted Iran's active diplomacy despite efforts to isolate it. The interim peace deal signed in June unraveled due to alleged US breaches, leading to recent military exchanges between the two countries.
