TEHRAN, Iran — Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian says that a Lebanon ceasefire was one of the key conditions of the Islamic Republic’s 10-point plan for securing an end to the Middle East war, the ISNA news agency reports.
Pezeshkian tells French counterpart Emmanuel Macron in a phone call that Tehran’s “acceptance of the ceasefire is a clear sign of Iran’s responsibility and serious will to resolve conflicts through diplomacy,” ISNA says.
He adds that “establishing a ceasefire in Lebanon has been one of the key conditions of Iran’s 10-point plan.”
