Iranian President Pezeshkian Debunks US Claims, Says ‘Iran Never Sought Nuclear Weapons’
On Nowruz, one of the holiest days on the Islamic calendar, Iran fired on Israel and energy sites in neighboring Gulf Arab states, insisting that it can still build missiles and issuing a new threat: to deny safety to its enemies in “parks, recreational areas, and tourist destinations” worldwide.
Yet Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian claimed, "We do not intend to have disputes with Muslim countries. We are not seeking conflict or war with Islamic nations; they are our brothers."
Israel, meanwhile, pounded Tehran with airstrikes as Iranians marked Nowruz, the Persian New Year.
The U.S. military is deploying three more warships and roughly 2,500 more marines to the Middle East, where there’s no end to the war in sight despite three weeks of U.S. and Israeli air strikes that have decimated Iran’s military and leadership. The Pentagon’s request for another $200 billion to fund the war would need congressional approval as the U.S. national debt hits a record $39 trillion.
In an interview broadcast Friday, Pezeshkian said that "the United States and its President are leading the world to believe that we are moving toward acquiring nuclear weapons, that we intend to initiate mass destruction. Unfortunately, many in the international community accept these false claims, and based on them, they assert that they are confronting those who are destabilizing the region."
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israel will stop attacking the gas field that Iranians depend on for most of their electricity at the request of U.S. President Donald Trump. Iran responded to Israel’s attack on the field by intensifying targeting of energy infrastructure in other Middle East countries, sending oil and gas prices soaring.
The death toll has risen to more than 1,300 people in Iran, more than 1,000 people in Lebanon, 15 in Israel, and 13 U.S. military members in the region. Millions of people in Lebanon and Iran have been displaced.
