Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has stated that the United States must honor its commitment to a ceasefire in Lebanon. He said the two-week truce between Iran and the US included assurances that Lebanon would be covered under the agreement. Araghchi made the remarks during a phone conversation with Iran’s envoy to Lebanon on Friday.

Araghchi condemned Israeli attacks in Lebanon, emphasizing that such actions must stop under the terms of the ceasefire deal. Meanwhile, Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf declared that Iran would not begin any talks with the United States until the ceasefire in Lebanon is implemented and Iran’s frozen assets are released.

The statements reflect Tehran’s firm stance on linking regional stability and diplomatic engagement with Washington to the enforcement of the Lebanon ceasefire and the resolution of financial restrictions.
