Iran Sets 3 Tough Conditions to End War with US, Israel: Rights, Payments, Safety

Three Key Demands by Iran

Pezeshkian called for compensation for the damages suffered during the war in a post on social media platform X.
"Talking to leaders of Russia and Pakistan, I reaffirmed Iran's commitment to peace in the region. The only way to end this war--ignited by the Zionist regime and US--is recognising Iran's legitimate rights, payment of reparations, and firm international guarantees against future aggression," he wrote.

First-Ever Reparations Ask

In discussions regarding nuclear matters that had been planned prior to the outbreak of hostilities, Iran has consistently reminded Israel that, as a signatory of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT), it views nuclear enrichment as a legitimate right.
Notably, this marks the first time a senior Iranian leader has called for reparations as a condition for concluding the war.

Stern Warning on Port Attacks

Iran has also indicated that it is prepared to issue a stern warning to its adversaries to avert further escalation. Military officials from Iran have stated that any assault on the country’s ports or maritime infrastructure could provoke a broader regional response.
Abolfazl Shekarchi, a spokesperson for Iran’s armed forces, warned that if Iran's ports were attacked, the country would retaliate by targeting strategic locations throughout the Persian Gulf.
“If our ports and docks are threatened, all ports and docks in the region will be our legitimate targets,” he said.

No Collapse for Iran's Regime?

Despite ongoing military pressure, Israeli officials have suggested that the conflict is unlikely to lead to the collapse of Iran’s political system. Reports from within Israeli deliberations indicate that there are no clear signs that Iran’s ruling structure is on the brink of falling.
To date, even after extensive bombing campaigns and targeted strikes on military leaders, there has been no indication of a widespread uprising against the government.
