He also challenged the common narrative that portrays Iran as a major global threat, saying it does not match historical or present-day realities. His tone suggested an attempt to ease public fear and open the door for better understanding between the people of both nations.
Call for Peace but Warning of Resistance

However, he also made it clear that Iran would not back down if attacked. Highlighting the country’s long history, he said Iran has survived many past aggressors and will continue to stand strong. His message combined hope for peace with a firm warning that Iran is prepared to defend itself if necessary.
