Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad-Bagher Ghalibaf said Wednesday that the recently signed US-Iran memorandum of understanding in Islamabad is effectively a declaration of America's defeat, according to Abu Ali Express. The statement is the latest in a series of hardline remarks from Ghalibaf as diplomatic negotiations proceed.
Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad-Bagher Ghalibaf — who also leads Iran's negotiating team — said Wednesday that the recently finalized US-Iran memorandum of understanding (MOU), signed in Islamabad, constitutes a declaration of America's defeat. His remark, reported by Abu Ali Express, continues a pattern of hardline commentary from the senior Iranian official even as diplomatic talks with the United States advance.
As The Zioneer has reported, Ghalibaf has repeatedly characterized the emerging deal as a document of defeat for the US over the past week, and has also threatened a 'crushing blow' if Washington violates the accord. The MOU signing is expected to take place in Switzerland as early as Friday, though no official date has been confirmed by either side. Ghalibaf will reportedly lead the Iranian delegation to the signing.
