Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi affirmed on Thursday that the war with America elevated Iran's standing in the region, noting that the world's nations acknowledge Tehran's victory in the war.
In a press statement, Araghchi added, "There is no military solution to the issues concerning Iran. We stand firm in the face of threats and will not yield." He asserted that "the solution does not lie in threats, and the more the other side escalates its threats, the more failure it will reap."
Araghchi continued, "If they want to test us again and engage in war, the only outcome will be the same failure they suffered previously. The other side must understand that it must seek solutions to the issues with us outside the military arena."
Araghchi pointed out that "countries now acknowledge that we were victorious in the last war and were able to thwart our enemies' objectives." He explained that "the last war was a significant turning point in our region and greatly enhanced our standing."
Araghchi noted that "now is the time for Iran to consolidate its position and demonstrate its role in the region more than ever before."
