Despite facing significant external threats, the Iranian government is resolute in its commitment to averting the risks of war, as stated by a top official on Tuesday. Emphasizing a preference for diplomacy over conflict, the administration spokesperson highlighted the importance of diplomatic efforts and deterrence strategies in safeguarding national interests. The government is actively engaged in diplomatic pursuits while also enhancing its deterrence capabilities through prepared armed forces.
Recent military exercises demonstrate the nation’s readiness for any eventualities, with a cautious approach to negotiations being maintained. The government remains vigilant, monitoring developments closely, and is prepared to utilize deterrent measures to prevent any misjudgments. Acknowledging recent student protests, the administration respects the right to protest while underscoring the importance of observing certain boundaries, such as religious sanctities and national symbols, even during times of unrest.
The spokesperson stressed the significance of constructive dialogue and rationality in addressing issues, advocating for a peaceful resolution over confrontation. Expressing gratitude to key figures for their efforts in facilitating the reopening of universities, the government aims to navigate challenges through dialogue and cooperation rather than discord.
