While diplomatic efforts to prevent the escalation of the conflict between Iran and the United States have accelerated, Massoud Pazhkian emphasized giving priority to diplomacy over war.
The Iranian president said: "We can end the discussion with your honor." We are people of negotiation and logic dictates that if we can obtain our rights through negotiation, we should not involve ourselves in war.
However, Mr. Pazhkian emphasized that Iran "will not submit to force and bullying."
Mr. Pazhkian's statements coincide with growing concerns about the risk of escalation of conflicts between Iran and the U.S. The Prime Minister of Qatar traveled to Washington and is scheduled to meet and talk with Donald Trump in a few hours.
At the same time, the Iranian and American officials talked about Tehran's proposal to resolve the conflict between the two sides.
