Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian declared that Tehran has never acted outside the international framework, according to an official statement from the presidential office.
Speaking at a meeting with senior officials, Pezeshkian stressed that all of Iran's activities, from foreign policy to its nuclear program, are conducted in accordance with international regulations and norms. He made these remarks to counter recent accusations that Tehran has violated agreements or engaged in actions that destabilize the region.
The Iranian leader also underscored his country's commitment to maintaining dialogue and cooperation with the international community, while asserting that current sanctions are unjust and contrary to the spirit of international law.
Pezeshkian's statement comes amid ongoing tensions between Iran and several Western countries over the nuclear program and regional issues. Tehran has repeatedly emphasized its right to enrich uranium for peaceful purposes under the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT).
Analysts suggest that Pezeshkian's latest remarks may be an effort to de-escalate tensions and pave the way for future negotiations, although no official response has yet been received from the parties involved.
