‘Never sought war’: Iran’s President Masoud Pezeshkian says Tehran not seeking conflict with US

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian said Saturday that Tehran is not seeking a conflict with the United States, warning that a wider clash would harm all sides. He made the remarks during a phone call on Saturday with Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi, according to a statement from the Iranian presidency.

“The Islamic Republic of Iran has never sought, and in no way seeks, war and it is firmly convinced that a war would be in the interest of neither Iran, nor the United States, nor the region,” Pezeshkian said.
