️🇮🇷🇺🇸 The Secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, Mohsen Razai, said that Iran's priority is to change America's behavior by accepting its terms first, and that any future nuclear talks will begin with Iran's rights as a member of the NPT, instead of limitations on them. He added that the Strait of Hormuz will not be reopened until Iran exercises its rights.
"Remember the connection with the other instructions in these conditions, which will be published in due course, God willing. The differences are both in terms of verification and enforcement guarantees. The general principle is that we will first change America's behavior by accepting these terms, and then move on to other discussions. For example, if at some point we want to enter into nuclear talks, first of all we will not discuss our rights. We keep to ourselves, because everyone - even the agency itself - knows that every country that is a member of the NPT has 22 rights. So why don't we take advantage of all our rights? Therefore, as long as we remain a party to the NPT, there may be times when they want to start a war. Not sure we won't be left behind after any future war, but while we're at it, we have 22... ... rights, therefore if they want to enter into a discussion on the nuclear issue with us, first of all we will raise our rights. Just like now, we say that the Strait of Hormuz will not be opened until we exercise our rights."
