In an interview for Al Mayadeen, Professor Mohammad Marandi said that he does not think #Iran wants to change mediators, explaining that the problem is with the US, not the mediators. As for Iran's relationship with #Oman, Professor Marandi noted that they have a very good relationship, explaining that Oman did not participate in this war like other #Gulf states. "So obviously, Iran has good relations with Oman, and it will discuss relations with countries in the region, as well as the situation with the United States, with Oman because they have experience with the #UnitedStates and they have longstanding relations with countries in the region," Professor Marandi said. He also noted that Iran and Oman share the Strait of Hormuz, adding that they need to coordinate on a host of different issues. Seyed Mohammad Marandi #IranWar #WarOnIran

Speaking to Al Mayadeen, Professor Mohammad Marandi pointed out "two major miscalculations" by #US President Donald Trump and Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu. The first, Marandi explained, was that contrary to the United States and "Israel's" attempt at a "regime change" in #Iran, the two have revived the "revolutionary fervor" among Iranians. Marandi further stated that the second miscalculation that will continue to "haunt" #Trump and Netanyahu is "pushing Iran to take control of the Strait of Hormuz."

In an interview for Al Mayadeen, Professor Mohammad Marandi confirms that Iran’s stance remains unchanged, despite repeated threats from US President Donald Trump, who seems unfit "fit for office in the sense that he's not stable." Pointing to Sayyed Khamenei’s latest remarks, Marandi stresses that control over the Strait of Hormuz is non-negotiable and reflects the will of the Iranian people. He argues that Washington’s shifting deadlines and rhetoric only reinforce Tehran’s position, not weaken it. Seyed Mohammad Marandi #Iran #WarOnIran #UnitedStates #Trump #AlMayadeen

In an interview with Al Mayadeen, Professor Mohammad Marandi said that Oman is operating under severe diplomatic pressure from the United States following recent threats made by Donald Trump. Concurrently, Iran has implemented a strict transit policy, asserting that no maritime vessels will be permitted to navigate the Strait of Hormuz without explicit permission. Marandi explains that this stance is a direct consequence of Washington's failure to honor its commitments regarding Lebanon under the framework of the Memorandum of Understanding. The Professor added that, ultimately, the goal is to compel Washington to change direction and actively pressure the Netanyahu government. Marandi emphasizes that Iran will maintain this restrictive policy until the United States abides by the full framework of its regional commitments.

In an interview for Al Mayadeen, Professor Mohammad Marandi said that Iran and the US agreed upon terms that "were very appealing to Iran," explaining that the US accepted a regional end to the war, an end to the war on Lebanon, and to put off discussions about the nuclear program until the second stage. "So the only thing that is in this text that hasn't been agreed upon yet is Iran saying that it will not build a nuclear weapon, but that's what Iran has been saying for decades. So that's not something new for Iran," Professor Marandi said. He explained that the US wanted the Strait of Hormuz to return to normal, but Iran did not accept that, explaining that what Iran accepted "will return to normal is the number of ships that pass through," while it maintains control of the Strait.
