Iranian Foreign Ministry: Ending the Lebanon war is a fundamental condition for reaching a final agreement and regional stability.
PANews reported on June 28 that, according to Jinshi, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Bagaei, in response to questions regarding the latest developments in the implementation of the Agreed Framework between Israel and Lebanon and the first article of the US-Iran Memorandum of Understanding concerning the end of the Lebanon war, stated that Iran, in accordance with its consistent policy based on the UN Charter and fundamental rules of international law, emphasizes the necessity of upholding Lebanon's national sovereignty and territorial integrity, and respecting the dignity and security of all the Lebanese people. Iran considers this a fundamental condition for the continuation and stability of any understanding related to ending the war and the Zionist regime's occupation of Lebanon.

US media reveals inside story of the US-Iran ceasefire agreement: The Iranian president and central bank governor jointly urged the Supreme Leader to "sign it quickly."
According to a report by The New York Times on July 4th, citing four officials familiar with the details of the meeting, Iranian President Pezechzian visited Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei during the final stages of negotiations when Khamenei hesitated to approve the preliminary ceasefire agreement. The Iranian president told the Supreme Leader that the economic situation was dire, the US naval blockade was strangling Iran, and he would resign if he rejected the agreement. Furthermore, the Governor of the Central Bank of Iran, Abdulnaser Hemmati, also wrote to Khamenei, stating that the country faced a severe budget crisis and that critical food and medical supplies would run out by the end of August if the naval blockade continued. Hemmati explained in the letter that Iran could not sell oil on the required scale or find alternative trade routes. These statements played a crucial role in Mojtaba's eventual decision to support the agreement. In a brief public statement, he stated that although he opposed the agreement "in principle," he instructed the president to proceed if he obtained the support of the Supreme National Security Council. Pezechzian stated that the council approved the agreement by 12 out of 13 votes.
