'You reap what you sow': Iran's parl. speaker warns US against breaking potential commitments
Iran's Majlis (Parliament) speaker warns the United States against reneging on the commitments that Washington could undertake as part of a potential memorandum of understanding or agreement with the Islamic Republic.
"Commitments made must be commitments kept. No ifs, no buts, no excuses," Mohammad-Baqer Qalibaf wrote in a post on X on Friday.
"For the close deal ahead, there is no other way. You reap what you sow," he added.
Also on Friday, Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi outlined the contours of a potential memorandum of understanding with Washington that, upon likely realization, could be followed by conclusion of an agreement between the two sides.

Araghchi said the second phase of negotiations is expected to last 60 days, but might be extended if both sides were satisfied with progress.
However, if sufficient progress was not achieved, the process would not lead to a final agreement, the official noted. In that case, he said, the situation would return to its previous state before the memorandum.
The foreign minister, meanwhile, reminded the successive previous instances of the adversaries' non-commitment to former arrangements.
"We are not dealing with parties that are fully committed to their obligations. They take advantage of every opportunity to break their promises," he said.

A day earlier, Qalibaf had cautioned the US against launching a new round of aggression or targeting energy infrastructure, underlining how Iran’s retaliatory operations had already left US President Donald Trump bewildered.
