Pezeshkian: Iran Advocates Peace But Remains Steadfast In Defending Its People

According to Saednews, President Masoud Pezeshkian says the Islamic Republic of Iran advocates for peace, but is determined to defend its security and people.

The president made the comments in a post on the X social media platform Wednesday, praising Iran for its beauty and rich civilization.

“We possess a wealth of experience within the heart of Iranian culture and civilization for alleviating the suffering of humanity,” Pezeshkian said in the post attached with footage showing natural and historical sites across Iran.

“Iran is full of beauty. Friendship abounds in every corner of it. We have always sought to build bridges with other nations, not walls. We are advocates of peace, enemies of war, and at the same time, resolute in defending Iran’s borders, security, and people,” he further said.

The president has in the past days shared a series of posts on X, promising that his administration will do all it can to serve the people and help resolve problems in the aftermath of the recent Israeli aggression against the country.

The regime launched the unprovoked war of aggression on June 13, striking nuclear sites and civilian areas during its 12-day war imposed on the Islamic Republic. Iran responded powerfully, launching drones and ballistic missiles on key targets inside the Israeli-occupied territories, which ultimately forced the regime to accept a ceasefire announced on June 24.
