Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has said Tehran will not accept a ceasefire as the conflict enters its 22nd day, warning that Iran does not want a repeat of “last year’s scenario.” “We welcome any initiative that can fully end this war; we are ready to listen and consider,” Araghchi said. “At present, while some countries are trying to find a solution, the United States does not appear ready to halt its aggression. Therefore, we will continue to defend ourselves.”
He stressed that any end to the war must be “complete and permanent,” with guarantees that such a conflict will not happen again. He also demanded compensation for damages inflicted on Iran, adding that the country’s actions are “purely self-defense.”
