Iran live updates: Tehran warns of 'dire consequences' of any renewed US attacks

Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baqaei addressed the ongoing efforts to reach a deal with the U.S. during his Monday press conference.

"We have made our position transparent. Iran's proposal, which has become known as Iran's two-day plan, is itself a demonstration of Iran's utmost goodwill. Could we have put it more reasonably than this?" he said to reporters.

"If the United States implements Iran's demands, positive developments will be witnessed across the region within two days and security in the Strait of Hormuz will be restored. Can the other side find or propose a plan more reasonable than this?" he said.

Baqaei denied continued U.S. allegations that Tehran is working toward a nuclear weapon. "Last year in June, they announced that they destroyed Iran's entire nuclear program," Baqaei said of the joint U.S.-Israeli 12-day war with Iran, which culminated with the American Midnight Hammer operation targeting Iranian nuclear facilities.

"They claim to be monitoring all of the Iranians' movements and comings and goings, and at the same time, they spend money so generously to collect information regarding Iran's nuclear program," Baqaei added. "The goal is to keep alive the lie upon which they impose a war on the world."

Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baqaei warned on Monday that the U.S. should "realize the magnitude of the repercussions and dire consequences" of any renewed attacks on Iran.

Baqaei said during a press conference that Iran is still in talks with Qatar and Pakistan -- both of which have been acting as mediators -- but that it would only be party to an agreement "that fully secures the national interests" of Iran.

President Donald Trump is set to meet with Qatari Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al Thani in Washington, D.C., on Monday.

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said in a post to X on Monday that American voters and the Middle East have "had enough" of "Forever Wars."

Posting a clip of President Donald Trump's interview with CBS News' "60 Minutes" program that aired on Sunday, Araghchi suggested Trump "clearly recognizes that the vast majority of Americans are disgusted with Israel. Strikingly, he seems confused about why that's the case."

"Americans are evidently sick and tired of Israel bamboozling US administrations into Forever Wars. They had enough. So has our region," the foreign minister wrote.

On Sunday, Araghchi posted to X urging the U.S. to agree to Iranian demands, citing the midterm elections results as proof of American war weariness.

"American voters have made their choice. Time for the White House to make its own," he wrote. "Our 2-day proposal stands: meet the requirements, including end to war on all fronts, and you will see results."

"Or choose war, and see our alert and battle-hardened Warriors rain down hell," Araghchi added.

President Donald Trump spoke to reporters about the war with Iran on Sunday, asserting that the U.S. had not lost any soldiers in the war with Iran in months, as he continued to defend the war itself.

So far, the U.S. has lost 18 service members in the war while hundreds more have been wounded.

“On the Iran thing, we haven't had anybody killed in seven, six months. It's [a] different war,” Trump said.

"Again, we haven't lost anybody. No soldier has been lost. If you look at Vietnam and if you look at all these others, there were for many years with thousands, tens of thousands of people killed,” he said.
