Tehran, Iran – Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian affirmed that his country is continuing on the “path of resilience.” This came in response to the decision to reimpose UN sanctions under the so-called “trigger mechanism.” He stressed that Tehran will rely on its own capabilities and its people and will march with pride toward a brighter future.
Criticism of Washington
During the Iranian government meeting, Pezeshkian attacked US policies. He believed that Washington was obstructing any just solution to the Iranian nuclear issue. He pointed out that Western powers would not be satisfied with Tehran unless it submitted to their demands, which he described as an impossible scenario.
Ready to face challenges
The Iranian president explained that his government has developed plans to deal with various possible circumstances. He emphasized that its priorities are protecting the livelihoods and social welfare of citizens. He also emphasized that sanctions, despite their severity, will not deter his country from adhering to its independent political decisions.
Scene background
Pezeshkian’s remarks come at a time of heightened international tensions over the Iranian nuclear issue. This comes after the re-imposition of sanctions by the Security Council, which Tehran considers an “illegal” measure. These sanctions aim to exert political and economic pressure on it.
