Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian pushed back against international mediation efforts, saying that any countries seeking to broker a ceasefire should direct their pressure at those who started the conflict- not Iran.
In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Pezeshkian acknowledged that several countries had begun mediation attempts but said Tehran’s position was unambiguous.
“We are committed to lasting peace in the region, but we have no hesitation in defending the dignity and authority of our country," he wrote. “The target of mediation should be those who started the fire by underestimating the Iranian people."
