Iran’s president blames U.S., Israel for global instability in defiant UN speech
Pezeshkian said Tehran is open to negotiations while rejecting U.S. pressure and defending Iran’s wartime actions as self-defense.
- On Wednesday, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian addressed the 81st United Nations General Assembly in New York, accusing the United States and Israel of terrorism; a U.S. delegate walked out during his speech.
- President Donald Trump's Tuesday warning that he could "annihilate" Iran if no deal is reached set the stage for Pezeshkian's defiant response during the nearly seven-month war.
- Displaying photographs of late Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and more than 150 children killed in a Minab school strike, Pezeshkian asserted "We have only defended ourselves. We are not terrorists."
- Despite the hostile rhetoric, U.S. envoys Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff held three hours of indirect talks with Iranian officials, though Secretary of State Marco Rubio rejected Tehran's claims.
- Commercial shipping through the Strait of Hormuz remains well below prewar levels amid continuing attacks, as both Iran and the United States maintain competing blockades despite more than a year of failed negotiations.
