Iran has called on regional countries to establish a security mechanism independent of external pressures, asserting that the region's security should be based on its own nations rather than foreign powers. Esmaeil Baghaei, spokesperson for Iran's Foreign Ministry, stated on Tuesday in Tehran that his country supports the principle that regional security should rely on the region's states, not external parties whose sole aim is to guarantee the security of an "aggressive and expansionist" entity. He added that regional nations should create a security mechanism free from foreign pressure.
Baghaei's remarks followed proposals made by Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov on Monday regarding the enhancement of collective security mechanisms in the Strait of Hormuz and the Persian Gulf. Regarding the nuclear issue, Baghaei mentioned that nuclear matters were not on the agenda during the meeting between Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi and his Russian counterpart in Tehran on Monday. He also stated that Tehran is not currently engaged in nuclear negotiations with the United States.
Concerning the trajectory of negotiations between Iran and the U.S., Baghaei identified "excessive American demands" as the obstacle to progress. These statements come amid heightened tensions between Iran and the United States concerning navigation in the Strait of Hormuz, a critical strategic waterway for energy and goods supplies and a key point of contention in talks between Tehran and Washington. The article also references a military escalation between the U.S. and Israel against Iran starting February 28, followed by a ceasefire in April, with renewed confrontations occurring later amid stalled negotiations, despite a memorandum of understanding signed in mid-June.
