Iran is prepared to de-escalate tensions with Israel as long as it sees the same level of commitment on the other side, President Masoud Pezeshkian said.

“We’re willing to put all our weapons aside so long as Israel is willing to do the same,” Pezeshkian told reporters Monday ahead of the UN General Assembly in New York.“We’re not seeking to destabilize the region”

Pezeshkian is in the US for his first appearance at the UN’s annual gathering, where he’s scheduled to speak on Tuesday. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is expected to address the same summit two days later, though his travel itinerary hasn’t been finalized.

The Iranian president commented as tensions between Iran and Israel reach new heights after Tehran blamed Israel for being behind a large-scale explosion of pagers and walkie talkies that saw several killed and thousands of people injured in Lebanon — including Iran’s ambassador to Beirut. Iran has threatened to retaliate.

The attack — for which Israel has not confirmed or denied responsibility — was aimed at of the Hezbollah militant group, which is backed by Iran. The Islamic Republic also sponsors Hamas, which is fighting Israel in Gaza. Both are considered terrorist organizations by the US. In Yemen, Houthi rebels, also backed by Tehran, have been carrying out attacks against commercial ships in the Red Sea since last year.

Israel and Hezbollah are involved in an ongoing exchange of rocket fire. If that escalates into a full-blown regional war, the US and Iran — which sees Hezbollah as the most important of its allied militant groups in the Middle East — would likely be dragged in

Pezeshkian said Iran wants to see peace but will stand up in the face of injustices against its allies, who make their own decisions on military action. “They don’t take orders from anyone,” he said. “It’s not like Yemenis are waiting for us to tell them what to do or what not to do.”

“If a war erupts in the region, it would serve no one’s interest,” he said. “We don’t want to fight. It’s Israel that wants to drag everyone into war and destabilize the region.”

Pezeshkian reiterated that Iran didn’t know in advance about Hamas’s Oct. 7 attacks on Israel, which triggered the war in Gaza, and said both the US and Israel are aware. The militant group killed some 1,200 people and abducted about 250 more. Israel’s retaliatory campaign has killed about 41,000 Palestinians, according to the Hamas-run health ministry, which doesn’t distinguish between civilians and combatants.

Deemed a reformer within the narrow range of Iranian politics, Pezeshkian has expressed his willingness to rekindle talks about Tehran’s broken nuclear deal with the West and will push for the US to remove economic sanctions. He said Iran is willing to go back to the original accord, and said Tehran continues to moves toward the goals set in that agreement.

Pezeshkian, who took office in July after his hard-line predecessor died in a helicopter crash, also denied that Iran has provided Russia with weapons to its war against Ukraine, contrary to US assertions.

“We do not approve of Russian aggression against Ukraine,”[/b]he said. [b]“We have not and we will not supply them with any ballistic missiles.”

Iran's showing some fear here, and it's laughable. They've been backing terrorists to attack Israel, yet they claim not to want a war with Israel.

The Israeli Air Force is currently annihilating Hezbollah targets, taking out key figures hiding in Lebanon. By the time Israel's done, those buildings will be left with nothing but rubble. They had plenty of chances to stop their antics, but they thought they could just spin their usual propaganda online after attacking Israel. Not this time. Enemies of Israel will face total destruction.

Some of you isreal ass lickers should not see this as a sign of weakness of the great Islamic republic of iran.

Pezeshkian is just a moderate who believes in diplomacy to resolve issues.

Iran will defeat isreal on a one on one confrontation without the help of allies.

The nation of iran has grown stronger despite several years of continuous sanctions by the entire Europe.

I doff my hat for this great nation of iran.

Iran playing hide and seek...

The fear of Israel is the beginning of wisdom.

He who fights and run, lives to fight tomorrow

Positions like this will definitely descalate conflicts in the region

Kudos to the president

Iran is a peaceful nation. The world need more peaceful countries like Iran🇮🇷

With how ISRAEL is destroying the iranian backed Terrorists ,
How Gaza looks and
How Lebanon is being Gazaed,
The most honorable thing is to do everything possible to avoid ISRAEL!

I doubt the Ayotollahs will do that! Not until they are Sunk Inside the Red sea as Happened to Pharoah

He is a figure-head at most.
The real power lies with the Ayatollah.

Iran seems to have a wiser leader ... I hope the wisdom is permanent

Bad news for weapon merchants

ivolt:

True, but he wouldn't put out this official position without the Ayatollah's explicit approval. So we can say that he is acting as the Ayatollah's mouthpiece on this matter.

Two aircraft carrier with hundreds of fighter jet still waiting for any idiot

Motayoayinde in sifia pains

Not really.
The Iranian president is like a super minister/PR guy under a real president(Supreme leader).
He is restricted to certain roles locally.
He has the right to say a lot of things to make the country look good but not implementations or major deals.

He is a reformer and see things in a more conciliatory way. For those who want to see a better Iran, they think it is time for the Ayatollahs to pack up and leave with their extremist ideologies.

The man really like his people

Sorry but you do not have enough information on the
military might of both nations.

In of personnel, Iran has advantage. For Israel, what they do not possess in of men, they have in of equipments. Of the greatest advantage to the Israelis is possession of nuclear weapons. In the event of an existential threat, they will see to the annihilation of your “great nation of Iran”.

We all sincerely hope that Hezbollah stops their meddlesome behavior about Gaza. They should not have over confidently attacked Israel. Now the risk, even at a high cost for the Israelis, is the potential leveling of Lebanon, just like Gaza.

That is how you will keep edging them on... Until the kasala burst, you'll still be the first to start shouting genocide. Just like you guys push Gazans into trouble.

This comment is laughable …

I only see a man fulfilling his campaign promises. If you follow their last election, he is pro-west and want Iran to resolve its issues, and the sanctions away.

The same Iran Israel killed their president few months ago?

I know your brothers or you was part of those saying sassan Hussein was going to destroy America. At the earlier stage of the Gaza war, you were saying if Israel enter Gaza they will kill all of them, the reverse is the case now.

Muslims be beating chest and warmongering. They willl later turn and say “women and children”. Genocide

Seems Israel controls their communication

Terrorize the terrorists
Put fear into them, make them beg for mercy and when they beg, don’t pity them… hit them harder

Israel backing down now would be the worst decision ever

This clown has seen that his end is near and as a coward, he wants run away from the same conflict he is been instigating for years now.

Him pim-pim don dey calm down?
After shouting, I will wipe Israel from the surface of the earth!

They no dey tell person.

Wisdom is profitable to direct.

Israel should finish them all

You must finish what you started, after all you're fighting for allah and Muhammad as directed in your war manual book, quran

Quran 8:12

 I will cast terror into the hearts of those who have rejected; so strike above the necks, and strike from them every one standing."
