The official representative of the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Esmaeil Baghaei, has stated that Iran will never agree to a ceasefire while knowing it would be subjected to another attack shortly thereafter.
According to Operative Information Center-OMM, citing Iranian media, the spokesperson emphasized that Iran remains vigilant regarding the strategic intentions of its adversaries in the region.
Baghaei asserted that the United States and Israel intend to utilize any potential ceasefire with Iran as a tactical window to prepare for a new military escalation. Furthermore, he issued a direct call to European countries, urging them to remain neutral and avoid being drawn into the ongoing regional conflict.
This statement comes amid heightened geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, where diplomatic efforts to secure long-term stability have frequently clashed with military posturing. The relationship between Tehran and Western powers remains strained, particularly concerning regional security dynamics and the influence of US President Donald Trump's administration on Middle Eastern policy. Historically, Iran has maintained that any diplomatic pause must include guaranteed security provisions to prevent further hostilities.
