Spain Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez:

Just today, Netanyahu launches his harshest attack against Lebanon since the offensive began.

His contempt for life and international law is intolerable.

It's time to speak clearly:

- Lebanon must be included in the ceasefire.

- The international community must condemn this new violation of international law.

- The European Union must suspend its Association Agreement with Israel.

- And there must be no impunity for these criminal acts.

- In this conversation, the President emphasized the Islamic Republic of Iran's firm determination to establish peace, stability, and security throughout the region, stating: Iran's acceptance of a ceasefire is a clear sign of responsibility and Iran's serious will to resolve conflicts through diplomacy.

- Pezeshkian stressed the necessity of establishing a ceasefire in Lebanon and recalled that this demand has been one of the key conditions of Iran's 10-point plan, highlighting the important role of France as one of the guarantor parties of the previous ceasefire in Lebanon at this stage.

- Pezeshkian considered the insecurity imposed on the Strait of Hormuz as a direct result of the military aggression by the United States and the Zionist regime against Iran and emphasized Iran's responsible role, as in past years, in ensuring the safe passage of vessels through this vital waterway while preserving Iran's national interests and security.

- The President of France also, in this conversation, expressed appreciation for the Islamic Republic of Iran's action in releasing two French citizens and described the announcement of a ceasefire as an important step towards the complete end of the war and the establishment of lasting peace in the region.

- Macron emphasized the necessity to stop the conflicts in Lebanon and announced Paris's readiness to cooperate in international efforts to establish peace and security in the Persian Gulf region.

JD Vance:

The Israelis have actually offered to check themselves a little bit in Lebanon because they want to make sure that our negotiation is successful.

That's not because that is part of the ceasefire. I think that's the Israelis trying to set us up for success.
