Reporters' question: In a situation where Iran showed flexibility and made an offer for two days, CENTCOM announced that under the title "Iron Gate", it would establish a land blockade against Iran, in addition to the naval blockade. When do you think the path of diplomacy and negotiation will end?
Foreign Ministry spokesman: Know that diplomacy and the field are not two separate arenas; Instead, they complement each other. Both of these are tools, and we will certainly not hesitate to use either of these two tools to protect our national interests and national security as long as we see fit.
