Bagai: America insists on its unilateral demands Foreign Ministry spokesman in an interview with Germany's ARD network: We have never left the negotiating table. At the same time, we were fully prepared to defend our homeland. Messages are transmitted through intermediaries. But the problem is that America seems to insist and persist in its unilateral demands. Iran has nothing to do with such an operation which they claim was carried out against UK air bases. The Strait of Hormuz is not safe; Not because Iran has made it unsafe, but because America and Israel have misused this waterway; Since they continue to abuse the entire region to carry out military aggression and continue their illegal and aggressive behavior against Iran. Therefore, as long as this situation continues, we have no choice but to take the necessary measures to protect our territorial integrity, national security and our people.
