Iranian Foreign Ministry: U.S. Mistakes Negotiation for Issuing Orders

According to Jin10, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Baghaei said General Asim Munir's visit to Iran brought neither positive nor negative signals, and that the ministry would assess the situation based on national interests, clarify its position, and carry out all decisions made by the competent authorities. He said the United States had confused negotiation with imposing orders, and that Iran would monitor enemy movements with maximum force and high vigilance, while its armed forces would respond decisively to any act of aggression. He also said the United States should be held responsible for its broad violations of the Islamabad memorandum of understanding.
