In the event of repeated aggression, Israel will receive a much harsher response. We have repeatedly stated that we are fully prepared to defend ourselves with force, and also fully prepared to achieve a fair solution through negotiations," said Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Arakhchi in an interview with the Iranian media. "We set our specific conditions and presented a written plan. Now everything depends on the American side, whether political rationality will prevail and whether they have the will to follow the diplomatic path or, as in the past, strive for aggression. We are even better prepared than before for both scenarios. If they dare to test us again, they know they will receive a much harsher response than before. If they follow the path of honest diplomacy, we will act. Our conditions for opening the Strait of Hormuz are quite clear and transparent. If these conditions are accepted, the Strait of Hormuz will be opened and negotiations will resume. We will not compromise our principled positions and will not surrender to any force. At the same time, we are dialogue-oriented and ready for a positive interaction if the other party also adheres to this approach. Otherwise, if they have a desire to deceive or resort to military action and aggression, we are also ready and they will see our decisive responses," Argachi said.
