Iran Foreign Ministry Denounces US Actions, Calls for Diplomatic Efforts in Middle East

In a press conference held yesterday, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baqaei issued a clear warning to the international community that the United States poses a significant threat to the region and the world at large. Baqaei emphasized that Tehran demands that countries in the region be provided with security without any external interference, suggesting that regional actors must be empowered to address their own needs and interests.

According to Baqaei, the United States’ actions have been consistently hostile and arrogant, exacerbating instability in the region. The Iranian Foreign Ministry official highlighted that Tehran has presented reasonable and logical demands that incorporate the interests of the entire region, rather than merely serving Iran’s own interests.

Baqaei also expressed Iran’s gratitude to Pakistani mediators for their “professional” efforts in facilitating diplomatic talks. He further commended China for its willingness to engage in constructive dialogue, particularly in light of the visit by Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi to China, which the Iranian official described as “very productive.”

The Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman welcomed any Chinese initiatives aimed at ending the war and establishing security in the region, while reiterating Tehran’s calls for countries around the world to break free from what it perceives as the United States’ unilateral and hegemonic vision. Baqaei insisted that Iran will not be swayed by external pressure and will engage in diplomacy only when necessary.

Baqaei further attacked Rafael Grossi, head of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), for making inaccurate statements and deviating from his duties and responsibilities. The Iranian official called on Grossi to condemn the recent U.S.-Israeli aggression and to refrain from making statements that could escalate the situation.

The United States’ actions, Baqaei asserted, are responsible for halting the work of international inspectors in Iran. The Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman stressed that peace in the region, including Lebanon, is not an unreasonable demand, and that Tehran remains hopeful for the establishment of security and stability through diplomatic means.

Iran and Pakistan continue to engage in diplomatic talks with China, with the aim of finding a lasting solution to regional conflicts. The international community remains closely watching the situation, as tensions between Iran and the United States continue to rise.

In conclusion, Iran’s diplomatic efforts aim to de-escalate tensions in the region and promote stability through cooperation among regional actors. The Iranian government’s stance underscores its commitment to regional security and its opposition to external interference.
