Iran Dismisses ‘Excessive Demands’ in Talks; Leader’s Advisor Warns US of Consequences
An Iranian senior official has stated that Tehran will not permit excessive demands from the United States, whether in negotiations or throughout the ceasefire process. The official further warned that any act of aggression would be countered with a barrage of missiles and drones.
Mohsen Rezaei, serving as a member of Iran’s Expediency Discernment Council and an advisor on military affairs to the Leader of the Islamic Revolution, Ayatollah Seyyed Mojtaba Khamenei, expressed his views in a post on platform X this Wednesday.
Rezaei stated that America would not be permitted to impose excessive demands in either negotiations or the ceasefire process.
In the face of aggression, any attack will be met with a barrage of missiles and drones, ensuring that the course of history remains unaltered and the aggressor is swiftly brought to justice.
Rezaei’s caution emerged amid growing tensions as the frail ceasefire, mediated by Pakistan, exhibited renewed indications of stress.
On Tuesday, the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) reported the launch of missiles and drones targeting the US Fifth Fleet headquarters in Bahrain, a US Air Force base in Kuwait, and additional American military installations in the Persian Gulf region.
The assaults were a response to a U.S. strike targeting an Iranian ship in the Gulf of Oman and a U.S. offensive on a communications tower located south of Qeshm Island.
The recent attack represented the third instance within a week of Iranian strikes aimed at facilities associated with the United States in Kuwait.
Previous attacks on May 29 and June 1 featured ballistic missiles and drones, resulting in injuries and infrastructural damage, notably the destruction of a US MQ-9 Reaper drone.
Recent military exchanges highlight Iran’s resolute stance in responding decisively to any perceived infractions.
Tehran has consistently affirmed that its tolerance is finite and that any acts of aggression will provoke a severe retaliation, potentially involving increased limitations on maritime navigation through the Strait of Hormuz and the Bab al‑Mandab Strait.
