Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei has reiterated Iran’s right to acquire nuclear energy for peaceful purposes in accordance with international law.
During his weekly press briefing on Monday, Baghaei said that Iran, as a member of the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT), has been pursuing its peaceful nuclear program since the 1970s.
“Iran's principled position on the use of nuclear energy is based on logic and international law”, he noted.
Responding to a question about Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi's visit to Pakistan, the spokesperson said that the trip is in line with continuous and close consultations with neighboring countries.
“Bilateral issues as regional developments, especially those related to occupied Palestine, Lebanon and Syria, are to appear in Araghchi's meeting with top Pakistani officials,” Baghaei emphasized.
The spokesperson also said that the top diplomat is set to visit India on Thursday where he will patriciate in the Joint Economic Commission.
Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman dismissed allegations against Iran regarding Yemeni activities, stating that these claims are entirely unfounded and aimed at diverting attention from the ongoing genocide in Gaza.
He refuted all accusations regarding Iranian involvement in Yemeni activities, emphasizing that the allegations were groundless and part of an effort to shift the focus away from the true issue at hand—the ongoing genocide in Gaza and Palestine.
He highlighted that the only force in the region acting as a proxy for another power is Israel, which has caused instability and chaos in the region.
Furthermore, Baghaei pointed out that the Yemeni people's actions are driven by their humanitarian and religious solidarity with the Palestinian people and their right to defend themselves against repeated US aggressions.
He made it clear that these decisions are entirely independent, and no connection exists between Iran and the Yemeni activities as suggested by the accusations.
"Iran neither has nor needs a proxy in the region," he stressed.
