Iranian MP Ali Ghazanfari accused President Pezeshkian and Speaker Ghalibaf of refusing to admit the US-Iran agreement has 'completely collapsed,' claiming the 'third war' has already begun. He called for the prosecution of US President Donald Trump, Vice President JD Vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Jared Kushner, and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu under Islamic retaliation law (qisas), and alleged that the US has frozen $1 billion in Iranian digital assets without releasing any funds.
Iranian hardline MP Ali Ghazanfari escalated attacks on the Pezeshkian administration on Thursday, accusing the president and the speaker of concealing what he described as the 'complete collapse' of the US-Iran agreement. Speaking in a statement reported by the 301 the source, Ghazanfari claimed the 'third war' has already begun, even if not officially labeled as such. He called for the prosecution of senior US officials and Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu under Islamic qisas (retaliation) law.
The remarks follow a similar broadside by MP Hossein Jodenfri earlier Thursday, who also accused Pezeshkian and Ghalibaf of lacking the courage to admit the agreement's failure and apologize to the public. Both lawmakers belong to the conservative camp, reflecting growing internal opposition to the nuclear talks.
Ghazanfari also alleged that the US has not released any funds under the agreement and instead froze approximately $1 billion in Iranian cryptocurrency assets. His claims, which he did not support with evidence, match a pattern of hardline messaging that the administration is conceding too much for too little. The White House has consistently denied releasing any frozen Iranian assets, as The Zioneer reported earlier this week.
