Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian gave a defiant wartime address at the UN on Wednesday accusing the US of terrorism in his country and saying Iran would not "bend at the knee". But as Pezeshkian called for diplomacy, Iranian officials downplayed their talks with US counterparts on the sidelines of the gerenal assembly as "not anything new".
Iran’s president said Wednesday that his people have been “victims of terrorism” by the United States, delivering a rare wartime speech at UN General Assembly a day after President Donald Trump said he could “annihilate” the Islamic republic.
