According to the report by Iran's Mehr news agency on the 19th, Ali Larjani, advisor to Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, stated that Iran is not seeking war but must defend the country and punish aggressors. Any claims of Iran surrendering are seriously wrong. Larjani said Israel initially thought they could force Iran to retreat within a few days, but that did not happen. Larjani also mentioned that in the final stages of the previous US-Iran negotiations, the US was not attempting to resolve the issues but rather trying to impose specific demands on Iran. However, he did not disclose what specific demands the US was imposing on Iran during the negotiations. (Xinhua News Agency).
