The Iranian negotiating delegation has postponed its trip to Switzerland due to the ongoing Israeli aggression on southern Lebanon, an informed source told Al Mayadeen on Thursday. According to the source, the delegation had already been preparing to depart Iran and launch the first round of negotiations, scheduled to span 60 days, before the decision to suspend the trip was made.Tehran had previously informed both Washington and the mediators that the Lebanon file remains a central component of the negotiations and will directly influence whether the talks proceed, the source stated, citing Iranian warnings that continued Israeli aggression extending up to 10 kilometers deep inside Lebanese territory constitutes a clear violation of the first clause of the Memorandum of Understanding and the framework agreement.Iran's position in support of a ceasefire in Lebanon and the preservation of its sovereignty has been consistent throughout the war and beyond. Previously, Iran suspended diplomatic messaging with the United States after "Israel" targeted the southern suburbs of Beirut, and closed the Strait of Hormuz after Israeli massacres swept the country.NPR News: 06-20-2026 3AM EDT
