Iran has drawn a hard line at the negotiating table in Islamabad, laying out four non-negotiable conditions that could redefine the future of the Middle East conflict. Tehran is demanding full sovereignty over the Strait of Hormuz — a critical global energy artery through which nearly 20% of the world’s oil supply flows . It also wants complete war reparations, the unconditional release of its frozen assets, and a region-wide ceasefire — including an immediate halt to fighting in Lebanon. These sweeping demands come as high-stakes US-Iran talks continue under Pakistan’s mediation, with tensions still simmering across multiple fronts. United States officials see these conditions as a major challenge, as accepting them could significantly shift the balance of power in the region.
