The West Has Used the Nuclear Issue as an Excuse: Iranian Foreign Ministry

The nuclear issue has been used by the West as a pretext to exert pressure on the Iranian people. This was stated by Ali Larijani, the Secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council.

According to him, "the discussion about Iran's missile range after the 12-day war demonstrates the United States' and Europe's aim for regional dominance."

It should be noted that Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi had previously stated that the security of the Iranian people is of utmost importance. He emphasized that Iran will continue to steadfastly and forcefully defend its national interests.
