Iran has declared full combat readiness and its intention to respond to any aggression.
Iran said its armed forces were ready to respond immediately and decisively to any aggression.
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi made this statement amid threats from US President Donald Trump regarding a possible military strike on Tehran.
According to Araghchi, the Iranian armed forces are currently on full combat readiness.
Our brave armed forces are ready – with fingers on the trigger – to respond immediately and powerfully to any aggression against our beloved land, air and sea, the statement said.
In addition, he recalled the experience gained in the past.
The valuable lessons learned from the 12-day war enabled us to respond even stronger, faster and deeper, says Araghchi.
The official also emphasized his readiness for a fair nuclear agreement and assured that Tehran does not seek to acquire nuclear weapons.
At the same time, Iran has always welcomed a mutually beneficial, fair, and equitable nuclear agreement—one that is based on equal terms and free from coercion, threats, and intimidation—that guarantees Iran's rights to peaceful nuclear technology and ensures the absence of nuclear weapons. Such weapons have no place in our security calculations, and we have never sought to acquire them, Araghchi emphasized.
