In an interview with CBS, Iran’s Foreign Minister said:  "Iran has never requested a ceasefire or negotiations over it. I am ready to defend our country for as long as it takes.  

Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi added: We only target American assets, facilities, and military bases. The Persian Gulf countries’ territories are being used to launch attacks against Iran. There are many examples of this.

Moreover he said: We haven’t closed the Strait of Hormuz. The halted shipping is due to insecurity caused by US aggression. Some countries have requested a safe maritime corridor for their vessels, our military forces will decide on that.
