April 21 (Reuters) – U.S. President Donald Trump’s ceasefire extension is a “ploy to buy time” for a surprise strike, an advisor to Iran’s parliament speaker and top negotiator Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf said on Tuesday.

Qalibaf’s advisor said in a post on X that the continuation of the U.S. blockade on Iranian ports was “no different from bombardment and must be met with a military response.”
