armlur.am Tehran has suspended its obligations under the memorandum with Washington regarding the cessation of hostilities, confirmed Iran's Deputy Foreign Minister Kazem Gharib Abadi, reported RIA Novosti.
The Speaker of the Iranian Parliament and head of the Iranian negotiating team in dialogue with the U.S., Mohammad-Bagher Ghalibaf, stated on July 15 that Tehran sees no reason to adhere to the memorandum with the U.S. if it is not being implemented.
"We have also suspended our own obligations and are not fulfilling them at this moment, being occupied with the country's defense issues," said Gharib Abadi.
Tehran and Washington signed a memorandum on the night of June 18, which envisages the end of the conflict that began on February 28. However, U.S. military forces have carried out several series of attacks on Iran since July 8. The U.S. Central Command claimed that this was done allegedly in response to Iran's actions against commercial vessels passing through the Strait of Hormuz.
Iranian military forces have responded with strikes on U.S. bases in several countries in the Middle East. Tehran has also accused Washington of violating the memorandum on the cessation of military operations. U.S. President Donald Trump announced on July 9 that the ceasefire is no longer in effect.
