Iranian executive vice president Mohammad Jafar Ghaempanah said the agreement with the United States would secure all of Iran's national interests, in his first public response to news of the deal to end the war, Tabnak reported on June 15, citing Jamaran.

The remarks suggest Tehran expects the settlement to deliver tangible economic gains, including a possible release of billions of dollars in frozen Iranian funds, as the government frames the accord as a military and political victory and turns its attention to reviving a sanctions-hit economy.

Asked whether the agreement covered the release of Iran's blocked assets, Ghaempanah said the diplomacy, shaped by the president, members of the Supreme National Security Council and the approval of the supreme leader, would secure all of Iran's national interests with strength.

The success was owed to two things, he said, the cohesion and resilience of the people and the defensive and military power of Iran's fighters.

Ghaempanah said economic commanders had not abandoned the government during the war and that the administration would in turn stand by what he called the commanders of production.

The Iranian government regarded producers as the country's commanders of production and development, supported them and would, after the military and political victory, achieve major economic gains, he said after coming under increasing pressure.

Pointing to Israel's opposition to the agreement and what he described as its last-ditch efforts to derail it the previous night, Ghaempanah said the result of Iran's threats and the wider assault was that the other side had been forced to submit.

The reference to frozen funds touches on a long-standing Iranian demand.

The deal, set to be signed in Switzerland on June 19, follows months of negotiations in which US President Donald Trump alternately threatened to destroy Iranian infrastructure and praised the relationship with Tehran as more professional, while Washington had at various points sought the removal or destruction of Iran's stockpile of highly enriched uranium.
