TEHRAN Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei, the Leader of the Islamic Revolution, just recently attended to the possibility of future talks with the United States in remarks that garnered worldwide attention.By referencing previous experiences, he not just clearly laid out Irans stance on possible talks with the U.S., however also made clear the reasons for Irans deep-seated aversion to participating in them.
The following are the primary and key points of the Leaders remarks: History uses valuable lessonsIn his Friday comments, Ayatollah Khamenei referenced the 2010s settlements, especially the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), to underscore Irans unfavorable experience with the U.S.He pointed out that Iran made considerable concessions, only to see the U.S.
not just break its dedications but also wipe out any staying trust by abandoning the JCPOA and intensifying sanctions.This experience, as discussed by the Leader, shows that settlements with the U.S.
have not just failed to benefit Iran but have actually actively worsened its circumstance through heightened pressure and sanctions.
This historic context shapes Irans current position on future talks.Beyond the JCPOA, the unforeseeable behavior of the U.S., particularly during the Trump administration, has actually promoted an ingrained distrust.
The U.S.s repetitive failure to honor its commitments, even under international treaties, is a primary reason why working out with the U.S.
is thought about irrational, unwise, and dishonorable.
This entrenched mistrust of U.S.
policies has created a formidable barrier, one that the Americans appear to have little interest in dismantling.Talks with U.S.
will not help fix domestic issuesAyatollah Khamenei stated clearly that settlements with the U.S.
would not deal with Irans internal problems.He indicated the economic and income challenges dealing with the Iranian individuals, highlighting that the service lies within Iran itself, not in settlements with foreign and hostile powers.
This position reflects the leaderships independence-oriented outlook, which prioritizes domestic abilities and the determination of both authorities and the people to get rid of these challenges.He further recognized domestic challenges and repeated that their resolution depends upon nationwide unity and the concerted efforts of both government officials and the Iranian people.Iran must deal with threats firmly and reciprocate aggressionsElsewhere in his remarks, Ayatollah Khamenei stated the Americans are busy working on paper to alter the map of the world, with Iran also being the topic of their plans.Of course, its only on paper, it has no truth, the Leader noted.He elaborated on how Iran ought to be responding to such U.S.
habits, specifying that Iran should preserve an undaunted stance against threats and satisfy any aggressiveness versus its national security with a company and mutual action.
If they threaten us, we will threaten them.
If they act on their risk, we will act on ours.
And if they weaken our nationwide security, we will definitely undermine theirs as well, the Leader declared.The Leaders dedication to securing Irans security and national interests from external pressures and his technique in that matter are grounded in Islamic principles and Quranic mentors, things the Islamic Republic has done its best to follow because the very start.
