US-Iran War: Iran on Wednesday dismissed the United States' proposal aimed at ending the war, stating it will 'end the war' only on its own terms. Speaking to Press TV, a senior Iranian official familiar with the development called Washington's proposal "excessive."

"Iran will end the war when it decides to do so and when its own conditions are met," the official said, adding that Tehran will continue its defensive operations against the United States and has vowed to deliver 'heavy blows' until its conditions are met.

The senior Iranian official also highlighted how the United States had deceived Tehran in negotiations in the past, stating that Washington had twice failed to show a genuine intention of engaging in a meaningful dialogue. Citing those instances, along with subsequent military aggression against the country, Tehran said it has responded negatively to the recent overture.

What Are The 5 Conditions That Iran Has Laid Out To End War?

Dismissing the United States' proposal, Iran on Wednesday laid out five conditions under which it would consider ending the war.

1. A complete end to what it describes as US and Israeli 'aggression and assassinations'.

2. Concrete safeguards to prevent any future military action against Iran.

3. Clear and assured compensation for losses and damages caused by the war.

4. An end to the war on all fronts and for every resistance group active across the region.

5. Formal recognition of Iran's sovereignty over the Strait of Hormuz, which it says is essential to ensuring compliance with any agreement.

These conditions are in addition to those proposed to Washington during the second round of talks in Geneva, days before the United States and Israel launched coordinated strikes on February 28, killing Iran's Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and top officials.

Iran noted that a ceasefire would depend on whether the conditions are accepted, adding that no negotiations would be held prior to that.
