Iran remains ready for dialogue but will not acceptpressure, President Masoud Pezeshkian told the UN General Assembly on Wednesdayas the US delegation walked out during his address.
“We are ready for dialogue, but the [Americans] shouldknow that we will not accept the language of force,” Pezeshkian remarked,maintaining that Iran had never initiated a war. “War was imposed on us, but weproved that we are not afraid of war when defending ourselves and do not avoidnegotiations for peace.”
He presented Iran’s military capabilities as adeterrent against attacks on its cities, insisting that Tehran would not seekpermission from other governments to defend itself. He also accused the US andIsrael of arming Tehran’s opponents over the past seven months, framing Iran’sactions as defensive rather than expansionist.
Pezeshkian accused Israel and Western powers ofapplying “double standards” on nuclear weapons, inspections, and sanctions,contrasting scrutiny of Tehran with Israel’s status outside the NuclearNon-Proliferation Treaty.
“Israel kills, but Iran is sanctioned,” he said,arguing that sanctions primarily harm civilians.
On the Strait of Hormuz, Pezeshkian rejected asituation in which other countries benefit from the waterway while Iran facesrestrictions on access and navigation, pointing to weapons, explosives, andmissiles passing through the strait for use in regional conflicts.
The Iranian president advocated a regional“partnership for security,” arguing that instability cannot be confined withinnational borders and rejecting the view of neighboring countries ascompetitors. “We want our neighbors strong.”
Urging regional countries to resolve disputes amongthemselves, Pezeshkian cautioned against outside involvement that could fuelconflict. He closed by advocating an international order based on equality,justice, and common security. “Iran extends its hand of cooperation to theworld. Either we build security together, or we endure insecurity together.”
