[0:07](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/e4FYU8mFmipf/en/debate-on-reformists-conservatives-and-negotiations-with-the-west?t=7) My dear, the hard-liners are worse than the reformists.

[0:10](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/e4FYU8mFmipf/en/debate-on-reformists-conservatives-and-negotiations-with-the-west?t=10) Sorry, reformism is cancer, and hard-linerism is the plague.

[0:13](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/e4FYU8mFmipf/en/debate-on-reformists-conservatives-and-negotiations-with-the-west?t=13) What else can I say? Even before the war, our situation— For forty, fifty percent, year after year, we had inflation of forty or fifty percent.

[0:21](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/e4FYU8mFmipf/en/debate-on-reformists-conservatives-and-negotiations-with-the-west?t=21) We have to sort out our foreign affairs.

[0:24](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/e4FYU8mFmipf/en/debate-on-reformists-conservatives-and-negotiations-with-the-west?t=24) Where necessary, we should make deals. We shouldn't worry at all about give- and- take— give and take.

[0:28](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/e4FYU8mFmipf/en/debate-on-reformists-conservatives-and-negotiations-with-the-west?t=28) We've seen each other's haiku too… Those things they bring up, like, I don't know, honor and all that— Those things they say about it are wrong.

[0:36](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/e4FYU8mFmipf/en/debate-on-reformists-conservatives-and-negotiations-with-the-west?t=36) To solve the problem, all of us have no option but to— our priority is definitely negotiation and a deal, meaning give-and-take.

[0:45](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/e4FYU8mFmipf/en/debate-on-reformists-conservatives-and-negotiations-with-the-west?t=45) Yes, we can let some parts go and get some in return.

[0:48](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/e4FYU8mFmipf/en/debate-on-reformists-conservatives-and-negotiations-with-the-west?t=48) I think the friends who— Why, why, why should we give anything away?

[0:51](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/e4FYU8mFmipf/en/debate-on-reformists-conservatives-and-negotiations-with-the-west?t=51) What should we have given them that we still haven't? It doesn't work.

[0:54](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/e4FYU8mFmipf/en/debate-on-reformists-conservatives-and-negotiations-with-the-west?t=54) Look, again, it's just vague generalities.

[0:56](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/e4FYU8mFmipf/en/debate-on-reformists-conservatives-and-negotiations-with-the-west?t=56) Slogans and armchair deal-making. At this point, it's becoming a reality.

[1:01](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/e4FYU8mFmipf/en/debate-on-reformists-conservatives-and-negotiations-with-the-west?t=61) Well, the English have a saying: They say, if you're raped, and you can't fight off your attacker, give in and enjoy the rape.

[1:10](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/e4FYU8mFmipf/en/debate-on-reformists-conservatives-and-negotiations-with-the-west?t=70) So this isn't negotiation. It's obvious what it is.

[1:13](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/e4FYU8mFmipf/en/debate-on-reformists-conservatives-and-negotiations-with-the-west?t=73) I didn't want to speak this so frankly anymore.

[1:14](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/e4FYU8mFmipf/en/debate-on-reformists-conservatives-and-negotiations-with-the-west?t=74) It's something I understand too. You can't take part in any deal.

[1:17](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/e4FYU8mFmipf/en/debate-on-reformists-conservatives-and-negotiations-with-the-west?t=77) You have no ability whatsoever. Other than screaming and shouting— We've seen your ability too— what ability do you have at all?

[1:23](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/e4FYU8mFmipf/en/debate-on-reformists-conservatives-and-negotiations-with-the-west?t=83) — We've seen your ability to make deals too— My dear—flesh and blood— My dear—we've felt it to our bones. Listen.

[1:28](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/e4FYU8mFmipf/en/debate-on-reformists-conservatives-and-negotiations-with-the-west?t=88) Part of a conversation is listening. Yes, yes. Listening well.

[1:31](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/e4FYU8mFmipf/en/debate-on-reformists-conservatives-and-negotiations-with-the-west?t=91) Yes. You don't listen. You've shut your ears and only talk.

[1:35](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/e4FYU8mFmipf/en/debate-on-reformists-conservatives-and-negotiations-with-the-west?t=95) Sir, empty talk and selling dreams are long past their time, sir.

[1:39](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/e4FYU8mFmipf/en/debate-on-reformists-conservatives-and-negotiations-with-the-west?t=99) I'm not saying anything else. You still think it’s the 1980s and the JCPOA era.

[1:43](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/e4FYU8mFmipf/en/debate-on-reformists-conservatives-and-negotiations-with-the-west?t=103) That era is over, sir. It’s over. If you want to make a deal, you have to make a deal on your nuclear program and its preamble, Let me answer.

[1:50](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/e4FYU8mFmipf/en/debate-on-reformists-conservatives-and-negotiations-with-the-west?t=110) Well—or you have to address the regional issue…

[1:52](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/e4FYU8mFmipf/en/debate-on-reformists-conservatives-and-negotiations-with-the-west?t=112) Come on, then. Say I’m wrong. Say I’m wrong.

[1:55](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/e4FYU8mFmipf/en/debate-on-reformists-conservatives-and-negotiations-with-the-west?t=115) I wanted to ask you, please. No, this is just how my voice sounds.
