Iran Signals Willingness to Resume Ceasefire if US Honors June Agreement
Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian stated at the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation summit that Tehran is willing to resume the June ceasefire agreement with the United States if Washington also honors its commitments. The original agreement aimed to halt hostilities and initiate negotiations but collapsed amid mutual accusations of violations. Recent exchanges of fire near the Strait of Hormuz have heightened tensions, with Iran's Revolutionary Guard seeking greater concessions, including control over the waterway and financial reparations.
