Iran has released its own ceasefire proposal, calling for war reparations and sovereignty over the Strait of Hormuz, AP writes.
According to CNN, Iran's semi-official news agency Fars, citing a source familiar with diplomatic activities, also reported that Iran would not accept a ceasefire and believes it would be "illogical" for it to enter into negotiations with the United States.
"An informed source who spoke to Fars News Agency pointed to the opposing side's inability to achieve its goals, stating: 'Iran does not accept a ceasefire. In principle, it is illogical to enter into such a process with those who have violated agreements,'" the Iranian state media reported on Wednesday.
Fars News also cited a source claiming that Iran intends to achieve its strategic goals before the war ends.
Bloomberg also reported that Iran said it had rejected a US ceasefire proposal, citing the Iranian semi-official news agency Fars.
