Masoud Pezeshkian: We support dialogue and negotiations, but we will not surrender in the face of force and violence

"We support dialogue and negotiations," Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian said.

He stated that Iran's Supreme Leader had instructed officials to put an end to the situation of "neither war nor peace."

"We can engage in dialogue with dignity and resolve the issue with dignity. We support dialogue and negotiations. Logic dictates that if we can secure our rights through negotiations, we should not involve ourselves in war. However, we will not surrender in the face of force and violence," he said.

The Iranian President also noted the importance of managing and conserving energy consumption, including gasoline, electricity and gas. He stated that production should not be allowed to come to a halt through improper consumption management.

Pezeshkian emphasized the importance of using the country's capabilities and potential to overcome difficulties and create conditions for sustainable progress.
