Speaking to Al Mayadeen on Sunday, Professor Mohammad Marandi affirmed that Tehran will not compromise on Lebanon, stressing that this issue is a red line for Iran while noting that the ceasefire in Lebanon is the first article in the MoU. "If the Americans are not going to carry out their obligations with regards to Lebanon, they're not going to carry out their obligations with regards to anything else," Professor Marandi said. He emphasized that Lebanon is "very dear" to Iran, adding that there is a very "strong emotional attachment" to the Lebanese people.

Speaking to Al Mayadeen, Professor Mohammad Marandi argued that Iran's decision to shut the Strait of Hormuz has placed US President Donald Trump before a defining choice. "Is he going to choose the United States? Or is he going to choose the Israeli regime?" Marandi asked, arguing that Trump now has "no third choice" between protecting the US economy or forcing "Israel" to halt its aggression and ceasefire violations in Lebanon. He said Iran briefly reopened the Strait to demonstrate that it sought an end to the war and expected the US to honor its commitments, but after "they didn't act," Tehran closed it again. Marandi stressed that Iran "is dead serious," insisting it will not compromise until the Israeli occupation ends its war, withdraws from Lebanon, and fully implements the agreement, warning that "Iran has even implied that if this is not enough; they are willing to go further... It will strike 'Israel'." Seyed Mohammad Marandi #Iran #WarOnIran #UnitedStates #Lebanon #AlMayadeen

In an exclusive interview for Al Mayadeen, Professor Mohammad Marandi argued that the Lebanese government has "already destroyed any potential leverage that they had" by agreeing to engage in direct negotiations with "Israel", calling it "a huge gift to Netanyahu" that "can never be taken back. He stressed such a step would normally only come after securing major concessions, adding that "a sane person, a reasonable person, an educated person" would first extract gains before sitting at the table. Marandi further said that this approach has left Lebanon without real bargaining power, questioning what it could now offer in return.

Professor Mohammad Marandi reaffirmed that the success of the US-Iran memorandum of understanding is contingent upon the end of the Israeli war on Lebanon and the withdrawal of occupation forces from #Lebanon, stressing that Iran "will accept nothing less." He added that #Iran is prepared for the agreement to fail if its core conditions are not met, noting that "everything that Iran demands in the agreement has to be fulfilled, otherwise, Iran will not carry out its obligations." Marandi further explained that Iran would not necessarily announce any formal suspension of its commitments, but could instead adjust its behavior gradually, such as by reducing maritime traffic through the Strait of Hormuz. He added that while Iran is currently showing patience, it retains the ability to apply "pressure on the United States in a very subtle but very effective way," noting that global energy reserves are already being depleted.

Seyed Mohammad Marandi said the current confrontation marks a turning point in the regional balance of power, in an interview for Al Mayadeen, arguing that #Iran will no longer accept a status quo in which the United States and "Israel" can threaten it from military bases across the region. According to Marandi, Tehran aims to push the war until Washington and its Western allies recognize that attacking Iran is no longer an option. He also argues that the war could force broader regional changes, including a challenge to #Gulf states hosting #US bases and a shift in power favoring the Axis of Resistance.

In an interview with Al Mayadeen on Wednesday, Professor Mohammad Marandi said that the Iranian Armed Forces, which usually take responsibility for their actions, have not claimed responsibility regarding the Apache helicopter, even before the United States made its accusations. He added that Iran consistently announces its military actions, whether it downs aircraft, drones, or targets military bases, stressing that Tehran always makes its position clear. Professor Marandi said there is a possibility that the helicopter crashed due to technical failures, questioning why an Apache attack helicopter was operating in the Strait of Hormuz in the first place. He explained that US military hardware in the region is not being stored under ideal conditions, noting that bases have been destroyed and that the summer climate, including sandstorms and high humidity, is causing significant wear and damage to equipment.

Speaking to Al Mayadeen, Professor Mohammad Marandi said the US-Iran negotiations have effectively returned to the framework that existed weeks ago after the United States withdrew additional conditions it had attempted to impose. Referring to remarks by Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi, Marandi maintained that the release of Iran’s frozen assets remains part of the agreement despite US claims to the contrary. He argued that US President Donald Trump's last-minute demands, along with the escalation against Lebanon, Iran, and the Strait of Hormuz, only delayed progress before ultimately failing to alter the deal's core terms. According to Marandi, the agreement now largely reflects the understandings that had already been under discussion, including sanctions relief on Iran's energy exports, the release of Iranian assets, and ending the war on Lebanon.

Professor Mohammad Marandi accused Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan (MBZ), the President of the United Arab Emirates and Ruler of Abu Dhabi, of taking its alignment with "Israel" "far too far". Describing the UAE's role as "very destructive for the Islamic world, for the Arab world, and for humanity," Marandi said the UAE’s trajectory has shifted dramatically over the years, now placing it at the center of controversial policies across the region. "And all of its regional policies are in line with Zionist interests in the Horn of Africa, in the Arabian Peninsula and in the Persian Gulf," Marandi specified.

In an interview with Al Mayadeen on Wednesday, Professor Mohammad Marandi said that the United States has failed in the 39 days of warfare, as well as in siege warfare. He noted that if the US siege warfare were succeeding, Washington would not be carrying out acts of aggression against Iran, adding that such threats and aggression amount to an admission of failure. Pointing to Trump’s "erratic" behavior, Professor Marandi said he believes it is largely driven by pressure from the "Zionist lobby and Israeli regime," as well as Trump’s "huge ego."

In an interview for Al Mayadeen, Professor Mohammad Marandi revealed that the Iranian delegation encountered security threats during the negotiations with the United States in Islamabad. Marandi said the timing of how the talks were "very abruptly ended by JD Vance," coinciding with a Washington Post opinion piece calling for "a final barrage of leadership strikes, eliminating the Iranian officials who had been spared for the purpose of negotiations." He added that, due to the security risks, the delegation was forced to return via an alternative route and a different aircraft.

Professor Mohammad Marandi said the Western narrative around the US-Iran talks in Islamabad is being deliberately twisted. During an interview for Al Mayadeen, Marandi affirmed that Iran never discussed halting uranium enrichment. Those claims, he argued, were entirely manufactured by Western outlets to lay the groundwork for future war on Iran. By falsely portraying Iran as agreeing to terms it never accepted, the United States and its media ecosystem can later accuse Iran of "breaking commitments" if the US or "Israel" or both decide to attack Iran again.

"There's no genius here," Marandi argued, explaining that Trump's shifting positions across issues such as Iran, NATO, tariffs, and domestic politics make him unpredictable and difficult to engage with in negotiations.

In an exclusive interview for Al Mayadeen, Professor Mohammad Marandi noted that while "a lot has been agreed upon, there is still work to be done," and added that Iran’s chief negotiator, #Iran's Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, is actively pursuing the file. He expressed cautious optimism, saying that in his view "the chances for an agreement is high." Marandi argued that the United States "failed in this war" and that the #US-Israeli war on Iran has already had serious global economic consequences that are still unfolding. He also pointed to continued violations by the Israeli side, saying they have repeatedly undermined ceasefire understandings, especially in #Lebanon, and remain "the biggest problem" obstructing any lasting agreement. Highlighting regional dynamics, he praised the "heroic" role of the Resistance in Lebanon, "fighting the most heroic of battles to save Lebanon... to save the honor and dignity of the people of the region and beyond."
