In an exclusive interview with Al Mayadeen TV on Tuesday, General Rezaei said the Americans are fabricating these “pure lies” solely with the objective of reducing economic pressure and lowering global oil prices.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

“The Americans' claim about continuing negotiations or holding a meeting in Qatar is a pure lie.”<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

He reiterated Iran's firm stance on the strategic Strait of Hormuz, noting that Tehran has presented seven specific conditions as the undeniable rights of the Iranian nation.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

“Until these conditions are fully implemented, the Strait of Hormuz will not be reopened.”<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

Iran has already communicated its conditions to the American side, General Rezaei confirmed, but he questioned Washington’s reaction.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

“Their initial response was insufficient and deceptive, and we are still waiting for an explicit and clear response.”<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

"I emphasize that at the present moment, we are not conducting any negotiations with the Americans, and there are no negotiations between us and Washington."<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

There has been a wave of media speculation initiated by Western outlets regarding potential diplomatic breakthroughs between Washington and Tehran.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

The closure of the Strait of Hormuz by Iranian forces has severely disrupted global energy markets, sending oil prices skyrocketing and triggering a massive economic shockwave.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n\r\n

This energy crisis has disproportionately damaged Western economies and fueled severe domestic inflation in the United States.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n
