Tehran’s Stance on Ceasefire: We Only Accept a Complete End to the War

According to a report by the news website Walla, officials of the Islamic Republic have emphasized that they will not accept any temporary ceasefire, stating that their only desired outcome is a complete end to the hostilities. This position comes as new analyses emerge regarding the shift in U.S. President-elect Donald Trump's strategy from the threat of war to what has been described as 'prolonged strangulation.' This shift in Washington's approach has been met with critical and mocking reactions in Tehran.
