Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad-Bagher Ghalibaf said Sunday morning that the 'era of unilateral agreements is over' and warned that the other side must keep its promises or 'pay the price,' according to Iranian media reports. The remarks come amid internal debate in Iran over the emerging agreement with the United States.
Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad-Bagher Ghalibaf issued a hardline statement Sunday morning, declaring that the 'era of unilateral agreements is over' and warning the other side — implicitly the United States — that failing to keep promises would carry consequences. 'Reality is knocking on the door,' he said.
Ghalibaf's remarks come as the US-Iran agreement, reached in Islamabad earlier this year, continues to face criticism from hardliners inside the regime. The speaker has been a vocal critic of the deal, which he has previously described as 'unworthy of trust' and a 'declaration of America's defeat' (as earlier reported by The Zioneer). The exact context of the warning — whether directed at negotiating positions or implementation — was not elaborated.
The statement was reported by Iranian media. No further details on the timing or specific triggers were provided.
