Abbas Arakhchi, the foreign minister of the Islamic Republic of Iran, said in a conversation with Al-Jazeera: "We learned from past experience, we updated our weapons and fixed their weaknesses, and we also tested new weapons." "Our armed forces are more ready than ever." Stating that "the Americans will not achieve any of their goals" in the event of a conflict, Araji advised the neighboring countries: "In my opinion, the countries of the region should take care not to start a new war, because its consequences will affect the entire region, and the neighbors should convince their friends in the US to prevent a new conflict, because we have to defend ourselves."
