The speaker of the Iranian parliament criticized the United States for violating the ceasefire agreement, as three out of the ten proposals have been sabotaged.
On Wednesday, Iranian Parliament Speaker Ghalibaf publicly criticized the United States for violating the two-week ceasefire agreement reached between the two parties, adding further uncertainty to the already fragile prospects of the ceasefire.
Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf publicly criticized the United States on Wednesday for violating the two-week ceasefire agreement reached between the two parties, adding further uncertainty to the already fragile prospects for a ceasefire.
In a statement on social media, Ghalibaf stated that the history of the United States "repeatedly breaking commitments" was once again playing out, and pointed out that three of the ten ceasefire proposals put forward by Iran had been violated, including Israel's continued attacks on Lebanon, drones entering Iranian airspace, and Iran's uranium enrichment rights not being recognized. He emphasized that in the current situation, "bilateral ceasefire or negotiations are both irrational."
President Trump of the United States had stated the day before that Iran's proposal could serve as a basis for negotiations, and that the two sides had reached a preliminary consensus on suspending the conflict, on the condition that Iran allow ships to pass through the Strait of Hormuz during the ceasefire.
However, there was a rapid divergence in the two sides' understanding of the core terms of the ceasefire, with the focus on the passage of ships through the Strait of Hormuz. The US demanded that the waterway be "fully, immediately, and unconditionally open," while according to reports, Iran planned to levy tolls on passing ships. Iranian state media even stated that ship traffic had essentially stagnated due to ongoing Israeli attacks on Lebanon.
As one of the most important energy transportation routes in the world, the Strait of Hormuz carried about 20% of global crude oil shipments before the conflict. Since the conflict erupted at the end of February, shipping activities have decreased significantly, considered one of the "largest-scale oil supply shocks in history." Although the ceasefire agreement temporarily eased market tensions, ship traffic has not significantly resumed.
Due to the uncertainty of the ceasefire, international oil prices have fluctuated. US crude oil prices fell by over 16% on Wednesday, dropping below $95 per barrel.
