Iran speaker demands Lebanon truce, release of assets 'before negotiations'

Iran's parliament speaker on Friday set a ceasefire in Lebanon and the "release of Iran's blocked assets" as pre-conditions for the start of negotiations with the United States.

"Two of the measures mutually agreed upon between the parties have yet to be implemented: a ceasefire in Lebanon and the release of Iran's blocked assets prior to the commencement of negotiations," Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf wrote in a post on X in English.

"These two matters must be fulfilled before negotiations begin."
