However, he firmly underscored Iran&#8217;s absolute refusal to succumb to what he eloquently termed &#8220;policy imposition&#8221; under the guise of threats and coercion from external powers.<\/p>\n<p>Chief Ejei, speaking in a video disseminated by the judiciary\u2019s authoritative Mizan Online website, articulated Iran&#8217;s principled position: <em>&#8220;The Islamic Republic has never shied away from negotiations&#8230; but we certainly do not accept imposition.&#8221;<\/em> This statement highlights Iran&#8217;s long-standing commitment to diplomacy while safeguarding its sovereignty and national interests.<\/p>\n<h3>Iran&#8217;s Commitment to Peace, Not Surrender<\/h3>\n<p>Emphasizing Iran&#8217;s peaceful intentions, Chief Ejei declared, <em>&#8220;We do not welcome war in any way; we do not want war, we do not want its continuation.&#8221;<\/em> Yet, he adamantly stressed that this pursuit of peace would never come at the cost of Iran&#8217;s core identity and principles. <em>&#8220;Iran is absolutely not willing to abandon our principles and values in the face of this malicious enemy in order to avoid war or prevent its continuation,&#8221;<\/em> he asserted, clearly defining the nation&#8217;s red lines.<\/p>\n<h3>US Aggression and Iran&#8217;s Resilience<\/h3>\n<p>The Chief&#8217;s remarks come amidst a backdrop of continued US aggression and failed attempts to undermine Iran&#8217;s stability. Following a brief period of talks amidst a fragile ceasefire after nearly 40 days of conflict that began on February 28, negotiations have stalled due to the United States&#8217; unilateral imposition of a naval blockade on Iranian ports. In a reciprocal move to protect its strategic interests, Iran has maintained control over the vital Strait of Hormuz, allowing only a controlled flow of maritime traffic since the onset of the conflict.<\/p>\n<p>Recent reports from the US news website Axios, indicating that President Donald Trump was slated to receive a briefing on potential military action against Iran from Admiral Brad Cooper, head of US Central Command, further expose Washington&#8217;s bellicose intentions. Similarly, the provocative warning from Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz, suggesting &#8220;it is possible that we may soon have to act again&#8221; against Iran, underscores the regional threats Iran consistently faces.<\/p>\n<h3>Victory of Resistance: US Achieved &#8220;Nothing&#8221;<\/h3>\n<p>Chief Ejei unequivocally stated that the United States achieved <em>&#8220;nothing&#8221;<\/em> during the recent conflict, a testament to Iran&#8217;s robust defense capabilities and unwavering national unity. He affirmed Tehran&#8217;s steadfast resolve, declaring that Iran would <em>&#8220;not back down&#8221;<\/em> in any negotiations. This sentiment was echoed by Iran\u2019s revered Supreme Leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, who in a written message on Thursday, highlighted the United States&#8217; <em>&#8220;disgraceful defeat&#8221;<\/em> during the war.<\/p>\n<p>Supreme Leader Khamenei further emphasized the Iranian people&#8217;s unwavering commitment to safeguarding their <strong>&#8220;nuclear and missile&#8221;<\/strong> capabilities, rightly identifying them as integral components of their <strong>&#8220;national capital&#8221;<\/strong> and deterrent strength.<\/p>\n<p>Iran stands firm: ready for respectful dialogue, but unyielding against any form of bullying or imposition, and ever-vigilant in protecting its sovereignty and strategic assets.<\/p>\n<p>#Iran #USRelations #Diplomacy #Resistance #IslamicRepublic #NationalSecurity #StraitOfHormuz #NuclearProgram #MissileProgram #MiddleEast<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Iran&#8217;s Unwavering Stance: Open to Dialogue, Resolute Against Imposition Tehran, Iran \u2013 In a powerful declaration on Friday, Iran\u2019s esteemed Judiciary Chief, Gholamhossein Mohseni Ejei, reiterated the Islamic Republic&#8217;s consistent openness to constructive dialogue with the United States.
