Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi wrote: “The world witnessed how we were negotiating when the U.S. opted to open fire on our people and torpedoed diplomacy. We did what we always do: resist and confront those who assault us, and make sure they regret it. ‘Extending the hand of diplomacy’ does not entail sending bombers and then crow about their failure as a success. Try real and honest diplomacy instead of attempting to deceive the world”.
