Araghchi: Iran emerged from the war more prominent... and we will carry the strength of the battlefield into diplomacy

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi affirmed that the position of the Islamic Republic has changed fundamentally after the recent war, saying the world now views Iran differently after what he described as “proof of its ability to confront challenges and prevent its adversaries from achieving their goals.”

He said Tehran had achieved a “strategic victory,” explaining that the measure of victory is not the scale of the damage, but rather each side’s ability to impose its will and achieve its political and field objectives.

Araghchi noted that many foreign media outlets considered Iran “the biggest winner in the war of narratives,” even at the level of artificial intelligence, stressing that what took place was not a confrontation confined to the United States and “Israel,” but an event that left a broad impact on the entire international landscape.

He added that the world is now awaiting solutions that restore security and stability, stressing that Iran will enter the diplomatic phase “with the same strength it displayed on the battlefield,” and that the Iranian diplomatic apparatus will carry out any task entrusted to it “with high efficiency and capability.”
