Gate News message, April 21 — Iran’s state television declared early on April 22 that Iran has become the victor on the battlefield in response to Trump’s statement on extending the ceasefire period. The country cited control of the Strait of Hormuz as an extremely valuable bargaining chip gained in the conflict.
Iran agreed to suspend military combat operations, but emphasized that the war itself remains unfinished. State television warned against any rhetoric suggesting Iran must participate in negotiations under threat of enemy attack.
For any talks to proceed, Iran stipulated that lifting the maritime blockade alone is insufficient. Negotiations must occur without any topics infringing on Iran’s independence and dignity, with Iran’s defense and missile capabilities, nuclear power, and nuclear technology as paramount concerns.
