Iran's Ghalibaf warns Trump to avoid ‘mistakes’, accept 14-point proposal, 'IRGC battle ready’

Tensions between Washington and Tehran are rising once again after Iran’s Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf issued a sharp warning to President Donald Trump amid collapsing ceasefire negotiations. Ghalibaf declared that Iran’s armed forces and the IRGC are “battle ready” and prepared to deliver a crushing response to any new aggression against the Islamic Republic. The warning comes after Trump rejected Tehran’s latest 14-point proposal aimed at ending the conflict, calling Iran’s counteroffer “totally unacceptable.” Iran’s leadership insists the United States must recognize Iranian rights, lift sanctions, and stop military pressure if diplomacy is to survive. Ghalibaf also warned Washington against making “strategic mistakes,” saying any reckless move by the U.S. or Israel would trigger consequences they “cannot anticipate.” The statements underline growing fears that the fragile ceasefire between Iran and the United States may soon collapse completely.
