Iran will not accept any agreement ending its conflict with the US unless there is certainty that the Iranian people’s rights are secured, top negotiator Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf says according to state media.

“There is no trust in the enemy’s words and promises. Our only criterion is to achieve tangible results before we fulfill our commitments in return,” he adds after taking an oath as the reelected speaker of parliament alongside its presidium.
