Shamkhani: Iran is going [to Rome] to achieve a balanced agreement; not surrender.

Shamkhani: Agreement also stipulates speed [in implementation], refraining from threats, reining in troublesome parties like "Israel", and facilitating investment.

Shamkhani: Agreement based on nine principles, including seriousness, guarantees, balance, lifting sanctions, and refusal of Libya/UAE models.

Ali Shamkhani, Advisor to Iran's Leader: Negotiators headed to Rome with complete authority to arrive at comprehensive agreement.

Sheikh Qassem: Reconstruction is not a favor from anyone, and we will not accept blackmail under this pretext.

Qassem: Lebanon cannot move forward under US guardianship, and the US must respect the Lebanese people’s will for independence and non-interference in its affairs.

Sheikh Qassem: They say they are linking reconstruction to disarmament, we say we are the ones linking weapons to reconstruction.

Sheikh Qassem: Moving to the second phase requires implementing the first phase, which includes the withdrawal of “Israel,” an end to its aggression, and the actual start of reconstruction.

Sheikh Qassem: Hezbollah has fulfilled its responsibilities; let “Israel” fulfill its own, and let the Lebanese state fulfill its own.

Qassem: We will not discuss the details of the defensive strategy in the media, nor will we preempt the principles that will be agreed upon once we sit at the dialogue table.
