Those conditions would likely be unacceptable to Washington.<\/p>\n<p>On Monday, Iran&#8217;s foreign minister Abbas Araghchi also said the US must honour its commitments and the framework deal. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Then we can get out of this situation,&#8221; Araghchi told Iran&#8217;s state-run television on the sidelines of the summit in Bishkek.<\/p>\n<p>Araghchi is in Kyrgyzstan as part of the Iranian delegation led by Pezeshkian.<\/p>\n<div class=\"c-widget-related\" data-stories-id data-event=\"widget_related\">\n<div class=\"c-widget-related__title\"><b class=\"c-widget-related__title__text\" lang=\"en\">Related<\/b><\/div>\n<ul class=\"c-widget-related__list\">\n<li class=\"c-widget-related__item\">Exclusive: US naval blockade is paralysing daily life, Iranians tell Euronews<\/li>\n<li class=\"c-widget-related__item\">Oil prices higher as US-Iran tensions flare and Warsh fans rate hikes<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<p>Pezeshkian also said in another part of his speech at the summit that Tehran is not seeking war, and claimed the Islamic Republic has an impressive record of fulfilling its international commitments and treaties.<\/p>\n<p>Pezeshkian&#8217;s remarks come as the exchange of fire between Iran and the United States has once again escalated since the early hours of Monday, when the US targeted two Iranian launchers on Larak Island. <\/p>\n<p>Hours after the US attack on the island near Hormuz, the Iranian president stated that Iran does not seek war but will &#8220;never sit quietly&#8221;

Those conditions would likely be unacceptable to Washington.On Monday, Iran&#8217;s foreign minister Abbas Araghchi also said the US must honour its commitments and the framework deal.&#8221;Then we can get out of this situation,&#8221; Araghchi told Iran&#8217;s state-run television on the sidelines of the summit in Bishkek.Araghchi is in Kyrgyzstan as part of the Iranian delegation led by Pezeshkian.Pezeshkian also said in another part of his speech at the summit that Tehran is not seeking war, and claimed the Islamic Republic has an impressive record of fulfilling its international commitments and treaties.Pezeshkian&#8217;s remarks come as the exchange of fire between Iran and the United States has once again escalated since the early hours of Monday, when the US targeted two Iranian launchers on Larak Island.Hours after the US attack on the island near Hormuz, the Iranian president stated that Iran does not seek war but will &#8220;never sit quietly&#8221; in the face of any aggression and will &#8220;deliver a firm response to the aggressors&#8221;.<\/div>\n<p>[analyse_source url=&#8221;https:\/\/www.euronews.com\/2026\/09\/01\/iran-says-it-will-return-to-june-ceasefire-deal-if-us-does-the-same&#8221;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[analyse_image type=&#8221;featured&#8221; src=&#8221;https:\/\/images.euronews.com\/articles\/stories\/09\/89\/67\/39\/1200x675_cmsv2_5cb08327-d3aa-54d5-b7ea-066561f6a86e-9896739.jpg&#8221;] Tech News Russia&#8217;s Starlink copycat has failed so far, but still threatens Ukraine Europe News \u20ac90bn loan for Ukraine is enough for now, Brussels says amid doubts Europe News Russia behind Leipzig airport drone &#8216;attack,&#8217; Berlin says Europe News EU\u2019s green fashion rules face test as global emissions rise 6.3% Tech News [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[90],"tags":[226,36],"class_list":["post-2122639","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-international","tag-crawlmanager","tag-euronews-com"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2122639","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2122639"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2122639\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2122639"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2122639"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2122639"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
