“We possess the necessary will to end this conflict, provided that essential conditions are met — especially the guarantees required to prevent repetition of the aggression,” Pezeshkian said in a phone conversation with the president of the European Council, according to a statement from his office, reiterating a key demand of Tehran’s.

Responding to a 15-point US plan for ending the war last week, Iran issued a five-point counterproposal that also called for ending the “aggression” and establishing a mechanism guaranteeing that neither Israel nor the United States would return to war, Iranian media reported.

“The solution to normalising the situation is the cessation of their aggressive attacks,” Pezeshkian said on Tuesday.

The war began on Feb 28 when the US and Israel launched a wave of attacks on Iran, killing its supreme leader and touching off salvos of retaliatory missile and drone attacks on countries across the region.
