🇮🇷 Ismail Baghaei: It has been decided that technical teams will continue their work

Spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs:

The groundwork for starting negotiations for a final agreement was discussed. It was decided that technical teams will continue working on the issues necessary for the effective implementation of this agreement.
At this stage, the work of the negotiation delegation has ended, but technical teams will resume their work tomorrow.
A text will be provided by the two mediators, Qatar and Pakistan, and will include the key points I mentioned. It will be presented as a document of the understandings reached over 18 hours of negotiations.
In addition to this document, the three points I mentioned earlier are important, including permission for Iran’s oil sales and the release of Iran’s frozen assets. These must take place so that, under item 13, we can begin negotiations for a final agreement.

🔠 Ahmed al-Sharaa: “The alternative to dialogue is war”

🟠 Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa, in an interview with Al-Mashad TV, explained in detail Syria’s view on the Lebanon crisis, the role of Hezbollah, and Damascus’s possible involvement in finding a way out of the long-running war.

🟠 Commenting on Donald Trump’s remarks about Syria’s possible role in disarming Hezbollah, al-Sharaa said that the deployment of Syrian troops into Lebanon is not under discussion. He added that Trump expresses dissatisfaction with the ongoing war and is seeking alternative solutions. “Syria may have a role in Lebanon, but only through Lebanese state institutions and the Lebanese state itself.”

🟠 The Syrian leader emphasized that Damascus has no intention of returning to the past experience of Syrian guardianship over Lebanon that was imposed during the previous regime. “We are not part of the Lebanon problem; we are part of the solution.” He stated that Syria’s priorities are not interference in neighbors’ affairs, but rather rebuilding the country, its economy, and development.

🟠 Al-Sharaa said that the war in Lebanon cannot be solved through military means alone. He stated that in his conversations with Donald Trump, Emmanuel Macron, and several regional leaders, Syria has proposed a different approach: ending the war, reaching a political solution, economic integration between Syria and Lebanon, and security guarantees for all parties.

🟠 The Syrian president also addressed the issue of the Shia community. According to him, Lebanon’s Shia fear losing the political position and influence they have gained in recent years. “The Shia community should not be pushed into a new confrontation; it must be calmed.” He warned that attempts to exclude a large community from the political system could lead to further chaos.

🟠 Speaking about Hezbollah, al-Sharaa recalled its participation alongside Bashar al-Assad in the Syrian war. “We have a deep problem with the party. Hezbollah has done major things inside Syria, brought in the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and Russia, and for fourteen years everyone has seen the consequences.”

🟠 At the same time, he openly expressed readiness for dialogue with the movement. “I believe in dialogue even between enemies. The alternative to dialogue is war.” According to the Syrian president, if talks with Hezbollah help maintain stability in Lebanon, Damascus is ready for such engagement.

🟠 Al-Sharaa also acknowledged that the existence of armed forces outside the state framework prevents the building of a fully functioning state. “Any state where the decision of war and peace lies outside state institutions faces serious developmental difficulties.”

🟠 At the same time, he rejected the idea that Lebanon must choose between internal war and an Israeli military campaign. “Why is Lebanon always forced to choose between civil war and war with Israel? There must be a third path.”

🟠 According to the Syrian president, the future of Syria-Lebanon relations should be primarily built around the economy. “We are seeking economic corridors between Syria and Lebanon, not military ones.” He described Beirut as Syria’s natural maritime gateway and Tripoli as the gateway to Homs, stressing the importance of joint energy, trade, and transport projects.

🟠 Addressing Lebanon’s Shia community, al-Sharaa stated: “It is better to reconsider past mistakes than to insist on them.” He emphasized the importance of transitioning the region from a war era to a development era and said Lebanon needs a political agreement that will preserve the country and prevent a new phase of destruction.

Israel’s new Mossad chief, Ronen Gofman, is attempting to make major changes within the organization. He wants to completely reassess Mossad’s working principles, missions, and management methods, and does not accept the old approaches.

does not accept the previous leadership’s reports regarding October 7
is calling for an additional, independent investigation
wants to implement a new model similar to the “shadow/mentor” system used in the military

Iran and US negotiations process — a tweet from an “opposition” figure:

“With Qalibaf entering diplomacy, everyone has been filled with admiration; Iranians are always one step ahead.”

The performance of the Iranian delegation in Switzerland has drawn reactions from analysts, who described it as “a masterpiece in psychological and diplomatic leverage.”

The Iranian negotiating team has shown that it plays by its own rules, which is something new for a world that considers the United States an unchallenged superpower:

“They came on their own terms, kept the Americans waiting, even refused symbolic gestures like handshakes, firmly stuck to their demands, and left as soon as Donald Trump’s usual threats came up in the discussion…”

The key point emphasized is that Iranians’ deep understanding of symbolism and strategy sets them apart. Every move is calculated, as if they are several steps ahead in a chess game, while their counterparts are struggling to maintain their position.

“We are at the lowest strategic point in our relations with the United States. Part of this damage has been caused by irresponsible statements from some Israeli officials, including personal attacks on Vice President J.D. Vance. We are talking about someone who could become President of the United States as early as tomorrow morning.”
