Pezeshkian: We will not submit to enemy, and negotiation does not mean retreat but rather restoration of Iran’s rights

TEHRAN, May 10 (YPA) – Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian affirmed, on Sunday, that Iran will never submit to the enemy, and that any talk of dialogue or negotiation does not mean surrender or retreat.

Pezeshkian said in a post on the X platform that proposing the option of negotiation is not linked to submission, but rather aims to restore the rights of the Iranian people and strongly defend national interests.

It is worth noting that on February 28th, America and the Zionist entity launched a 40-day aggression against Iran, targeting civilians, schools, hospitals, and mosques.

Consequently, Iran responded with Operation True Promise 4 against the Zionist entity and American bases in the region, and closed the Strait of Hormuz to the ships of the aggressors and their allies.
