Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian announced that the country will recover six billion dollars in previously frozen assets following a recent ceasefire agreement. He said the funds, held in Qatar, are part of a total of twelve billion dollars belonging to Iran. The release of the remaining portion is under ongoing negotiation. Pezeshkian described the lifting of oil and petrochemical sanctions as a major victory for the Iranian people.

During a visit to Qom, Pezeshkian met with Grand Ayatollah Shobeiri Zanjani and praised the resilience of the Iranian nation during the war. He noted that despite the loss of leaders, ministers, commanders, elites, and students, the people, armed forces, and government stood united to defend the country. According to him, the Iranian people thwarted all attempts by the United States and Israel to destabilize Iran.

Pezeshkian added that the United States ultimately compelled Israel to accept the ceasefire agreement, marking a diplomatic success for Iran.
