Iranian president leaves door open to diplomacy in open letter to US

Pezeshkian said U.S. strikes and sanctions have increased instability and asked whether the war serves American interests.

  • On Wednesday, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian released an open letter to the American people, urging them to look past "manufactured narratives" regarding the perceived threat posed by Iran.
  • Tensions trace back to the 1953 coup d'état, an "illegal American intervention aimed at preventing the nationalization of Iran" resources, which disrupted democracy and sowed deep distrust of United States policies.
  • Questioning US priorities, Pezeshkian argued that Washington is acting as a "proxy for Israel," claiming the United States has "decided to fight Iran to the last American soldier."
  • Attacking Iran's critical infrastructure constitutes war crimes, Pezeshkian claimed, warning that the consequences of such aggression would spread far beyond Iran's borders.
  • "Iran will weather the conflict, and the US must choose between confrontation and engagement," Pezeshkian added, noting Iran has faced many aggressors throughout its glorious history.
