Iran to continue resistance until making “aggressors” regretful – President

Iran’s President Masoud Pezeshkian has said that the country would continue its resistance with strength until the “aggressors” are brought to complete regret.

Pazeshkian said this in a post on social media platform X, while highlighting Iran’s opposition to war.

“The Islamic Republic of Iran has always been opposed to war and considered the preservation of the people’s interests and ensuring the (West Asia) region’s security to lie in refraining from warmongering,” Pezeshkian said.

He added, “However, just as it has courageously risen to defend against aggression up to this day, Iran will continue this resistance with strength until the aggressors are brought to complete regret.

“We will remain the guardian of the rights of the great Iranian people.”

On Feb. 28, Israel and the United States launched joint attacks on Tehran and other Iranian cities.

Iran responded with waves of missile and drone attacks targeting Israel and U.S. bases and assets in the region, and tightened its grip on the Strait of Hormuz.

On June 18, the United States and Iran signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) on ending the war in the region.

Under the MoU, they were scheduled to hold negotiations within a period of 60 days, which ended on Aug. 17, to reach a final agreement.

However, the talks’ fate remains unclear following the recent escalations between the two countries.
