Pezeshkian to Macron: Negotiations amidst aggression false illusion
Tehran – Saba: Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian on Saturday stressed that the belief that his country can be forced to accept unreasonable demands and double standards under pressure, or to sit at the negotiating table, in light of the Zionist entity's ongoing aggression, is a false illusion based on no reality. This came during a phone call between Pezeshkian and French President Emmanuel Macron. According to the Iranian Tasnim News Agency, the Iranian President indicated during the call, which took place Saturday evening, that he came to this position with the slogan of internal reconciliation and openness to the world, but the Zionist entity has sought from day one, through the assassination of Martyr Haniyeh, to disrupt and obstruct these goals. He added that Iran has never sought to possess a nuclear weapon, basing this on its ideological principles and the fatwa of the Supreme Leader. He noted that Iran has always been willing to reach an understanding and agreement through dialogue and cooperation, "but the major powers, instead of accepting our arguments, preferred to believe the lies of an entity seeking to destabilize the region." Pezeshkian emphasized that Iran is not seeking war and bloodshed, but will never hesitate to strongly defend itself. He added, "We have always preferred to resolve issues through diplomatic means, but anyone who imagines that Iran will submit under pressure and accept irrational demands, or that it will negotiate while the Zionist attacks continue, is deluded." He pointed out that American officials repeatedly emphasized during the negotiations that the Israeli entity does not launch any aggression without American coordination and approval. "Therefore, the current attacks were also carried out with an American green light. If Washington truly wanted to, it could rein in this entity and bring it back to its true size." For his part, French President Emmanuel Macron affirmed during the call that France is ready to play a more active role in resolving the Iranian nuclear issue. He added that Paris was unaware of Israel's intention to attack Iran and was not involved in any way. He expressed hope that these developments would not affect relations and cooperation between the two countries. Macron added that France adopts a firm stance against the Zionist attacks on Gaza and "will continue to adhere to this approach." Whatsapp Telegram Email Print
