DUBAI - A senior Iranian parliament member said on Wednesday that a report by Axios that includes the text of a U.S. proposal for an agreement with Iran to end the war was more of a wishlist than a reality.


"The Axios text is more of an American wish list than a reality; Americans will not gain anything in a war they are losing that they have not gained in face-to-face negotiations," Ebrahim Rezaei, spokesperson for parliament's foreign policy and national security committee posted on X.
