TEHRAN – Ayatollah Seiyed Ali Khamenei, the leader of the Islamic Revolution, recently addressed the possibility of future consultations with the US in a statement that has attracted attention from around the world.
By referring to past experiences, he not only clearly outlines Iran’s stance on potential consultations with the US, but also reveals the reasons for his deep embracing dislike for Iran’s involvement with them. did. Below are the main points and important points of what a leader says.
History offers valuable lessons
In his comments on Friday, Ayatollah Khamenei referred to negotiations in the 2010s, particularly the Joint Comprehensive Action Plan (JCPOA), highlighting Iran’s negative experience with the United States.
He pointed out that Iran made substantial concessions, but the US would not only reject its commitment, but would only slash the remaining trust by waiving the JCPOA and expanding sanctions.
As the leader explained, this experience shows that negotiations with the US not only failed to benefit Iran, but also actively exacerbated the situation due to increased pressure and sanctions. This historical context forms Iran’s current position on future lectures.
Beyond the JCPOA, particularly during the Trump administration, the unpredictable US behavior fostered deep-seated mistrust. The repeated failure of the United States to respect its commitment, even under international treaties, is the main reason why negotiations with the United States are considered irrational, unwise and dishonorable. This distrust of US policy has created a frightening barrier. This is something that Americans seem to have little interest in dismantling.
Discussions with us will not help to solve domestic problems
Ayatollah Khamenei explicitly said negotiations with the US would not resolve Iran’s internal issues.
He pointed to the economic and livelihood challenges facing Iranian people, and emphasized that the solution lies in Iran itself, not in negotiations with foreign and hostile forces. This position reflects the leadership’s independence outlook, prioritizing domestic capabilities and decisions of both officials and people to overcome these challenges.
He further identified domestic issues and reiterated that their resolutions depend on national unity and the coordinated efforts of both government officials and Iran.
Iran must face a threat firmly and have to go back and forth through attacks
Elsewhere in his remarks, Ayatollah Khamenei said that Americans are busy working “on paper to change the map of the world” and that Iran is also the subject of their plans.
“Of course, it’s on paper, and there’s no reality,” the leader pointed out.
He detailed how Iran should respond to such US actions, saying that Iran should maintain a firm stance on the threat and meet attacks on national security through mutual responses with businesses. Ta.
“If they threaten us, we will threaten them. If they act on their threat, we will act on ours. And they will If it undermines national security, we will undermine theirs too,” the leader declared.
The leader’s commitment to protecting Iran’s security and national interests from external pressures and his approach in question is based on Islamic principles and the teachings of the Qur’an.
