Ghalibaf indicated that any attempt to impose “surrender” on Iran will be met with outright rejection, emphasizing that Iran’s response is clear: “No submission, no concession.”
He added: “The enemy, which was planning to overthrow the regime in Iran, has made opening the Strait of Hormuz a main objective.”
In a different context, the Pakistani Ministry of Foreign Affairs said Islamabad will host a quadrilateral meeting on Sunday for the foreign ministers of Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Egypt and Pakistan to discuss efforts to ease tensions amid the conflict involving Iran and the United States.
