(MENAFN) Iran’s Vice President Mohammad Reza Aref emphasized on Sunday that Tehran will resolutely defend its rights, from securing control over the Strait of Hormuz to seeking compensation for past grievances, following the conclusion of talks with the US in Islamabad.

Aref spoke of the growing unity within the nation, underlining that this cohesion forms the basis for advancing Iran’s national interests. "From strength in the Strait of Hormuz to pursuing compensation, we stand firm on the rights of the people; this is our commitment to a strong Iran," he said, reiterating the country's firm stance on its sovereignty.

Despite prolonged discussions, the recent round of talks in Islamabad, mediated by Pakistan, ended without an agreement. Both sides left with unresolved key issues, signaling the need for continued diplomatic efforts to address their differences.
