Iran's reply to US on war to be sent today through Pak: Reports

Iran sends war response to US via Pakistan today, seeking UN guarantees, sanctions relief, and Strait of Hormuz reopening before discussing nuclear program.

"The American-Zionist enemy must accept the rights of the Iranian nation - Brigadier General Reza Talaei-Nik"

Tehran, May 7

Iran still has the US proposal under scanner, but a response to it is expected by Thursday, as reported by Al Jazeera.

Although there is no official deadline for the reponse, Pakistani mediators today are said to be expecting one.

A lawmaker in the Iranian parliament and Former Foreign Minister told Al Jazeera that a response will be sent to the US.

Iran is concerning itself with cessation of war on all its fronts for now, adding that no nuclear talks are on the table. Iran wants guarantees directly from the UN Security Council, then they want sanctions to be lifted, and the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz. If that is achieved, in a second phase, they're said to be ready to discuss their nuclear programme, as reported by Al Jazeera.

In the Strait of Hormuz, Iran established a new body called the "Persian Gulf Strait Authority". Iran stated that the maritime regime in the strait has changed, and any ship passing through needs to communicate with Iranian authorities prior to the transit.

Iran on Wednesday called for the US and Israel to recognise the rights of the Iranian nation to pave the way for putting an end to the war, Press TV reported.

"The American-Zionist enemy must accept the rights of the Iranian nation, and especially the US enemy must distance itself from the evil Zionist regime (Israel), and this will pave the way for the end of the war," Press TV quoted Brigadier General Reza Talaei-Nik as saying.

Nik further said that the US cannot get out of the "quagmire it is stuck in" if it does not recognise the rights of Iran, and if it refuses to distance itself from the "evil and criminal" Israeli regime, adding it should accept the realities of the battlefield, as per Press TV.

Iran is playing smart diplomacy. They want UNSC guarantees first, then sanctions relief, and only then discuss nuclear program. Classic bargaining. But the Strait of Hormuz move is concerning - it could disrupt global oil supply, and India heavily depends on that route. 😟

Tehran's strategy seems clear: maximize leverage by controlling the strait and demanding recognition of their rights. But expecting the US to "distance itself from Israel" is a non-starter. This looks like a prolonged standoff rather than a quick resolution.

Another day, another Middle East crisis. India needs to diversify its energy sources and reduce dependence on this volatile region. The Iran-US tensions have been going on for decades - there's no easy solution. Let's hope diplomacy works this time.

Iran demanding UNSC guarantees and sanctions relief before talks is reasonable from their perspective. But creating a new "Persian Gulf Strait Authority" will escalate tensions further. Gulf nations will not accept this unilateral move. India should quietly engage both sides to protect our interests. 🤔

Trusting Pakistan as a mediator is questionable given their history. But if it helps de-escalate the situation, maybe it's worth a try. The Strait of Hormuz issue is critical - any disruption there will impact global oil prices and hit India's economy hard.
