Iran speaker warns US must accept Tehran' rights or face ‘failure after failure’ Iran’s parliamentary speaker, Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, has said there is no viable path forward without recognising the rights of the Iranian people, as set out in Tehran’s 14-point proposal. Posting on X, Ghalibaf warned that alternative approaches would lead to continued setbacks, “there is no alternative but to accept the rights of the Iranian people” “Any other approach will be completely inconclusive; nothing but one failure after another,” he wrote. He also cautioned that delays would come at a cost for Washington.
