Ammon News - Iran ⁠has formulated ​its positions and demands in response ​to recent ceasefire proposals conveyed via intermediaries, a foreign ministry spokesperson said, adding ​that ‌negotiations were “incompatible with ultimatums and ⁠threats to commit war crimes”.

Spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei ‌said Tehran had a set of requirements ⁠based on its national interests that had already been conveyed via ​intermediary channels, adding that earlier US ‌demands such as the 15-point plan were rejected for being “excessive”.

“Iran does not ‌hesitate to clearly express what it considers its ​legitimate demands and doing so should not be interpreted as a sign of compromise, ​but rather as a reflection ​of its confidence in defending ​its positions,” Baghaei said in a press conference.

“We have ​formulated our own responses” and will announce details in due time, he added in response to an Iranian journalist’s ⁠question regarding ongoing efforts to bring about ⁠a ceasefire between ​Iran and the US.
