He stated that Iranian forces are on high alert and ready to defend the country. He warned that any hostile action would receive a firm and immediate response.

Iran Reaffirms Support for Fair Nuclear Deal

Abbas Araghchi said Iran has always supported a transparent and fair nuclear agreement. He added that Iran is open to any deal that does not include nuclear weapons.

According to him, any agreement must also recognize Iran’s basic rights. He stressed that pressure and threats will not force Iran into unfair terms.

Warning Against Any Military Aggression

The Iranian foreign minister made it clear that Iran will not compromise on its defense. He said even a limited attack would be answered strongly.

He added that Iran’s response would be effective and immediate if its sovereignty is challenged.

Supreme Leader’s Advisor Issues Tough Warning

Ali Shamkhani, advisor to Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, also issued a strong warning. He said that if the United States launches military action, Iran will target the US, Israel, and their allies.

He dismissed talk of limited strikes as misleading. He warned that any US attack would face a full and decisive Iranian response.

Background of Rising Tensions

The statements come after Donald Trump claimed that a large US naval fleet is moving toward Iran. He said the fleet is led by the aircraft carrier Abraham Lincoln.

Trump stated that the fleet has full capability to use force if needed. At the same time, he expressed hope that Iran would return to negotiations for a new nuclear agreement.

Regional Situation Remains Tense

Political analysts say tensions between Iran and the United States remain high. Diplomatic efforts appear uncertain as both sides continue to issue strong statements.
