In Iranian regime rhetoric, "dignity and sovereignty" is diplomatic code for refusing any deal that limits their uranium enrichment, ballistic missile program, or proxy support networks (Hezbollah, Houthis, etc.). It frames external pressure or verification demands as humiliating interference, preserving the regime's domestic narrative of resistance to the West/Israel. Trump's team historically treated it as non-negotiable posturing: maximum sanctions and "no concessions on core threats" until verifiable compliance on nukes, terrorism, and missiles—not vague assurances of dignity. Words alone wouldn't suffice; actions would.
