Baqaei recounts bargaining positions tied to attack on suburb

Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmail Baqaei said that during the last attack on the suburb he halted negotiations and announced they would strike the Zionist entity that night, and if it responded the entire region would be struck. He added that the result was the lifting of the blockade that same night, while under the understanding it had been scheduled to open after 30 days. He said that when Trump posted a message saying the blockade and the Strait of Hormuz would open together that night, he announced that if the false claim about the Strait of Hormuz was not corrected, the attack would be carried out, which forced Trump to correct his post, adding: this kind of negotiation means struggle.
