The Western media continues to portray US-Iranian talks as a means for US President Donald Trump to end the war many portray as a “failure” even as the US continues striking Iran amid a “ceasefire.”

The worst part about Western reports regarding supposed US “diplomacy” is that the last 26 years alone of US aggression against Iran prove the US uses diplomacy only to further war on its own terms, not to avoid or end it.

Speaking to Al Mayadeen, Professor Mohammad Marandi affirmed that Iran will not allow the Strait of Hormuz to go back to normal until “Lebanon is quiet.”

Professor Marandi highlighted that Iran had to make sure there are no “loopholes” in the agreements and no elements that the US can use to “cheat Iran,” stressing that the agreement has been carefully constructed, “including the parts that deal with Lebanon.”

“When the text comes out, people will see that those have been carefully crafted so that there would be no excuse for the Zionist regime and for the United States to continue the slaughter of women and children,” he said.
