Iran calls on US to meet its obligations under interim deal
Iran has entered “every negotiation with meticulousness and seriousness, keeping in mind the interests and concerns of the Iranian nation”, Iran’s Foreign Ministry spokesman says.
“Once an understanding has been reached, it has acted in good faith and seriousness in fulfilling its commitments,” Baghaei told reporters in Tehran.
“The Islamic Republic of Iran has never been the first to violate its commitments.”
Iran will no longer abide by the memorandum of understanding signed with the US if Washington fails to uphold its commitments to end the war, he added.
“Each time the other party has failed to meet its obligations, we did not uphold ours. … We will continue to act in this manner,” Baghaei said.

Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei says pursuing justice for the assassination of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei is “a serious principle” for the Iranian government.
“The government has a clear duty. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs is part of this process,” he said at a news conference in Tehran.
“We will use all legal and international tools and opportunities at the international level to document their [US-Israeli] crimes and to pursue the implementation of justice,” Baghaei added.
Iran is trying to agree a joint mechanism with Oman for shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, but US pressure on Muscat has hindered efforts, he said.
