Iran has expressed its willingness to end the ongoing war but says the United States must accept its seven demands before a peace agreement can be reached.

Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf said Tehran had clearly communicated its conditions to Washington and was now waiting for an official response.

Speaking in an interview with Al Jazeera, Ghalibaf said the responsibility now rested with the US to respond to Iran's proposals and clarify its position.

Iran demands changes to Strait of Hormuz

Ghalibaf said Iran's seven demands include new arrangements for the Strait of Hormuz, a major international shipping route.

He made it clear that maritime traffic through the strategic waterway would not return to its pre-war system.

He added that Iran and Oman would work together to determine the future arrangements for shipping and navigation through the strait.

Iran warns US and Israel against renewed war

The Iranian parliament speaker said ending the conflict against the resistance front was another important part of the proposed agreement.

He warned that if the United States or Israel launched another attack, Iran would confront both countries.

Ghalibaf also stressed that Tehran and resistance groups stood on the same side and that Iran would not abandon its position.

Regional security at risk

Ghalibaf warned that continuing the war would have serious consequences for regional security and economic stability.

He said other countries in the region would also suffer from the consequences of further escalation.

His remarks indicate that Iran wants peace but is unwilling to accept a temporary ceasefire without addressing its seven demands and the future management of the Strait of Hormuz.
