An Iranian negotiating delegation led by Parliament Speaker Mohammad Baqher Ghalibaf arrived in Islamabad Friday ahead of Saturday’s peace talks with the United States, which Ghalibaf demanded accept Iran’s “preconditions” before talks could begin.
Speaking from Islamabad, Ghalibaf claimed Iran had goodwill toward negotiations but no trust in the United States, adding that the Islamic Republic was ready to reach a deal if Washington offered what he described as a genuine agreement and granted Iran its rights, Iranian state media reported.
Ghalibaf stated earlier that Tehran’s demands include a ceasefire in Lebanon, which Iran and mediating Pakistan have stated was supposed to be part of the ceasefire with the US to begin with. The US and Israel have said otherwise. Ghalibaf has also called for the release of billions of dollars in frozen assets belonging to Iran.
Ghalibaf’s delegation includes senior political, military and economic officials, including the Iranian foreign minister, defense council secretary, central bank governor and several members of parliament.
A US delegation led by Vice President JD Vance also departed Friday, with Vance warning Tehran not to “play” the US during the negotiations.

My reply would be……”the bombing commences I. One hour.,,you either meet without conditions or we are not meeting.”
Commences in one hour….stupid fat fingers
“… adding that the Islamic Republic was ready to reach a deal if Washington offered what he described as a genuine agreement and granted Iran its rights, Iranian state media reported…”
***********************************************************
Why not…. BUT only if the Iranian people are granted THEIR rights first,
Gee, Iran, what is your interest in Lebanon?
I have a counterproposal: FOAD
After Trump had a talk with Bibi Israel did stop bombing Hezbollah.
Hezbollah did not stop. They kept on firing rockets into Israel all day yesterday.
Mr. Ghalibaf, I don't think you're serious. Have a nice life.
“Fine. Die. See ya.”
Nuts
We had an embassy. How many people were kidnapped and how long were they held hostage and paraded in front of the world? Death to America? No preconditions.
Use this time to get some more weapons in the hands of actual Iranians (not arabs) and let them shoot some more of the IRGC and Shia foreigners that they are bringing in to kill the Persians. What did their president say? Their economy is collapsing? 2 Weeks? We can wait, they cannot.
Udder waste of time, lets get back to WW3...
This is it.
War of wills.
Time for Mano a mano
I expect if they want Israel to do something they will need to talk to Israel. That is something that CAN NOT HAPPEN according to the religion of peace.
It acknowledges the position and power of Israel.
“Trump claims ‘the Iranians don’t seem to realize they have no cards,’ insists Strait of Hormuz to soon reopen ‘with or without them”
I’m thinking that tomorrow (if not before) the SHTF…..Trump will show the IRGC they have no cards.
Give them credit—Iran has balls. They think Trump will not act least he be called a War Criminal. Prove them wrong—Its “End of a Civilization time”.
Plus they’d have to discuss why they’re so concerned about Israel striking Hezbollah, a terrorist organization that continues to attack Israel.
Someone might bring up the fact that Israel has nothing against the state of Lebanon and in fact the gov. of Lebanon itself is less than thrilled with the presence of Hezbollah and its activities.
What is there left to strike if we wish to keep the oil flowing?
And pussie Starmer can hold talks about opening the Strait of Hormuz until he’s blue in the face……he’s just lips flapping in the wind while no one listens.
The time for “talking” is over.
The IRGC is psychotic.
You got no chips. Sit down and shut up and you might live.
I heard from a reliable source that we’re transporting 500 discombobulators over to the middle east. Should be there by Monday. :)
