Tehran: Judiciary Chief Gholam-Hossein Mohseni Ejei has expressed Iran's readiness for negotiations and reaching an agreement, but only based on 'principles and logic'. Ejei made the remarks during a session of the Supreme Council of Judiciary on Monday, discussing the current situation in Iran and the unsuccessful objectives of adversaries in both military and diplomatic arenas following 40 days of the US-Israeli war of aggression.

According to Islamic Republic News Agency, Ejei stated that the Americans, displaying their typical arrogance, approached the Pakistani-mediated talks in Islamabad on April 11 with their usual negotiating strategy. This strategy involved imposing false statements and trying to obtain from the negotiation table what they could not achieve in the 40-day war.

The Iranian delegation, led by Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, effectively defended the legitimate rights of the Iranian nation and the achievements on the battlefield. Ejei noted that the Iranian delegation successfully countered the Americans, akin to their defeat during the 40-day battlefield.

The Judiciary chief emphasized that protecting and preserving the achievements of the third defensive war is a priority for everyone, including diplomats, members of the executive branch, and officials in the Judiciary and legislative bodies. He stressed that all Iranians are protectors of the rights and achievements of the battlefield and the brave military personnel.

Ejei highlighted the importance of maintaining national unity, stating that the Iranian nation remains united and cohesive, follows Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Mojtaba Khamenei, and is present in the field to provide comprehensive support to the Armed Forces.

The Judiciary chief also warned that the finger of Iran's military forces is on the trigger, emphasizing that due to the temporary ceasefire, there has been no slackness or pause among the brave military servicemen.

Top officials from Iran and the United States arrived in Islamabad on Saturday to discuss a permanent end to the US-Israeli war of aggression against the Islamic Republic, days after Tehran and Washington reached a two-week ceasefire. The talks ended without a deal.
