Iran claims that it is prepared for war, but does not wish for a military conflict, emphasizing its openness to negotiations.

The Iranian Foreign Minister, Abbas Araghchi, stated that the Islamic Republic of Iran is "fully prepared for war," but is not seeking a military conflict. These statements were made during a conference with foreign ambassadors in Tehran, amid tensions with the United States and threats from President Donald Trump.

Araghchi emphasized that, although Iran is prepared for war, the authorities are open to negotiations, provided that they are fair and based on mutual respect. The statements come in the context of rising tensions between Washington and Tehran, especially following internal protests and international pressures on the Iranian regime.
