Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Bagheri stated that the current focus of negotiations is to end the "imposed war," and there is no immediate discussion of specific details regarding nuclear issues and sanctions relief. Iran has included demands such as lifting sanctions and releasing frozen assets in the texts of 14 memoranda of understanding. Nuclear issues have previously been used as an excuse to initiate war; at this stage, the focus will be on ending all front-line wars, including in Lebanon, and nuclear negotiations will resume in 30 to 60 days.

Mars Finance News, on May 23, Iran's Foreign Ministry spokesperson Bagheri stated in an interview with the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting on the 23rd that the current focus of negotiations is to promote the end of the "imposed war," and they are not currently delving into nuclear issues. Iran and the U.S. are working to finalize a memorandum of understanding. Bagheri said that at this stage, the negotiations do not involve specific details about nuclear issues and the corresponding lifting of sanctions, but Iran's demands for the lifting of sanctions, especially the release of frozen assets, have been clearly written into the 14 clauses of the memorandum of understanding. He stated that Iran is not currently discussing nuclear issues in depth because it believes that nuclear issues have twice been used as an excuse to wage war against Iran. Currently, Iran is focusing on promoting the end of "all fronts of war," including in Lebanon, and may re-enter negotiations on nuclear issues in the next phase after 30 or 60 days.

A 30-60 day window period is enough for both parties to test each other's bottom line.

Iran's move is quite interesting, first ceasefire then talk about nuclear issues, tearing off the excuse of war first.

If the flames of war reignite after 60 days, nuclear negotiations will once again be a castle in the air.

From 'maximum pressure' to 'imposed war,' the shift in rhetoric reflects a change in the balance of power.

Once the Lebanon front pauses, the entire Middle Eastern chessboard must be reset.

This negotiation rhythm is like playing cards; Iran is the first to play the big card to end the war.
