Here’s the exact translated demands.
Iran Six Demands
Grok Translation
In the Name of God, the Exalted Until America corrects its behavior, the Strait of Hormuz will not be opened. Correcting its behavior means:
- Never threaten Iran in any language and never insult the sanctities of this nation.
- Permanently end the war and aggression against Iran and Iran’s allies in Lebanon, Palestine, Yemen, and Iraq.
- Lift the naval blockade and withdraw its military forces (naval and air) from around Iran.
- Fully and completely pay the damages of the two aggressive and imposed wars against Iran.
- Lift the oppressive and illegal sanctions against the Iranian nation.
- Unconditionally release the blocked and stolen assets of the Iranian people.
These are the demands of the mobilized people of Iran, who have been shouting them during one hundred and sixty days of relentless presence in the squares and streets.
The Supreme National Security Council will never back down, whether in war or in negotiations.

A deal isn’t near and won’t be until there is total capitulation by Trump.
Where Things Are Now
NYT
On Board the USS Lincoln
In the Navy
Right now, more than 5,000 sailors and Marines are stuck aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln in the ninth month of a deployment that was supposed to last seven, supporting military operations against Iran that Congress never authorized.
Their families are begging someone to listen.
Moldy showers, broken toilets, no hot water for weeks, meals that came down to half a cup of rice and two tortillas.
A ship’s store out of soap, deodorant, and toothpaste.
Sailors so worn down that, according to one family member, the ship’s own doctor warned they need to reach port soon or people are going to start losing their minds.
Back in April, when families first raised the alarm, Pete Hegseth dismissed the reports as fake news. These are the people we ask to serve in one of the most dangerous workplaces on Earth, the flight deck of a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier.
They, and their families, deserve answers.

Iran Blasts a Ship Escorted by US Fighter Jets
Yesterday, I asked Iran Blasts a Ship Escorted by US Fighter Jets. Is the Strait Open?
All week, Trump and Bessent said a deal was imminent, another pack of lies.
No, the strait isn’t open.
I said in March that Iran’s goal was to inflict as much pain on Trump as possible, regardless of cost to Iran.
Trump had an out with the MOU and F’d it up.
