Araghchi’s comments came after Israel’s Defence Minister Israel Katz suggested that Iran’s Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei was “marked for death", adding Tel Aviv would not let Tehran pursue nuclear weapons. In a post on ‘X’, the Iranian minister shared a snippet from Katz’s remarks, and wrote: “The terms of the Islamabad MoU are crystal clear and public for all to see.

POTUS has committed the U.S. to muzzling its pets in Tel Aviv. If they ignore their master, Iran will school them."

What Israel Katz Said Israel Katz had described Iranians as “good merchants", who attempted to “extract concessions in negotiations" with the United States. He asserted that Tel Aviv would not let Tehran to pursue nuclear weapons. Katz also warned that a renewed attack from Iran would trigger a response from Israel. “The defensive partnership with the US exists.

But if Iran attacks, Israel acts with force. That is not conditional on anything. Trump is a friend of the State of Israel. In his worldview, he knows who the good guys are and who the bad guys are", he said. What’s The Status Quo? The U.S. and Iran remain engaged in negotiations to finalise an agreement to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and end the war in West Asia that began on February 28. In June, Washington and Tehran signed a 14-point preliminary agreement and initiated a 60-day ceasefire window to pursue negotiations. On Wednesday, the two sides held indirect technical talks in Doha as part of negotiations. According to Reuters, citing sources, negotiators for the U.S. and Iran spent two days in Doha discussing maritime traffic in the Strait of Hormuz and unfreezing Iran’s funds. The next round of discussions will take place after the burial ceremony of Iran’s slain Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei –– who was killed in the joint U.S.-Israeli strikes on the opening day of the war –– on July 9, Qatar’s Foreign Ministry said.
