Ghalibaf says no talks under threat, warns of new ‘battlefield cards’

Iran’s lead negotiator and parliament speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf said Tehran will not negotiate under threats and warned it has spent the past two weeks preparing new options on the battlefield.

“By imposing a blockade and violating the ceasefire, Trump wants to turn the negotiating table into a table of surrender or justify renewed warmongering," he posted on X.

"We do not accept negotiations under the shadow of threats, and over the past two weeks we have been preparing to reveal new cards on the battlefield.”
