Iran's President Raisi Criticizes 'Double Standards' at UN
Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi, addressing the UN General Assembly, accused the international community of applying "double standards" in its dealings with Iran and Israel. He stated that "Israel kills, yet Iran is the one being sanctioned," highlighting what he perceives as a biased approach.
Raisi emphasized that expanding the scope of war would not achieve any objectives, asserting Tehran's commitment to diplomacy and its refusal to yield to military pressure. However, he also declared that Iran is prepared to defend itself if attacked.
He further elaborated that Iran has never been an aggressor, has not initiated any wars, and has consistently demonstrated its dedication to negotiations. "If war is imposed on us, we have proven that we do not fear a war of defense," Raisi stated.
In a message directed at the US President, Raisi commented, "Trump must understand that threats unite our people."
