PANews reported on April 22 that, according to CCTV, in response to Trump's statement regarding extending the ceasefire, Iranian state television stated in the early hours of April 22 local time that Iran has become the victor on the battlefield. Control of the Strait of Hormuz is an extremely valuable bargaining chip that Iran has gained in this war. Iran has agreed to a pause in military fighting, but the war is not over. At the same time, Iranian state television also pointed out that Iran must be wary of any statements suggesting that it must participate in negotiations or its enemies will attack it. Even if the naval blockade is lifted, Iran's participation in negotiations must be conditional on not raising any issues that infringe upon Iran's independence and dignity, with the primary focus being Iran's defense and missile capabilities, as well as its nuclear capabilities and technology.
