Iran says U.S. must decide when to end the war

thehindu.com [$] —

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian stated it is up to the United States to decide when the Iran-U.S. war ends, though Tehran does not wish to continue the conflict. In a Fox News interview aired Thursday, Pezeshkian said America must choose whether to end the war, while telling the UN General Assembly that Tehran will never surrender to U.S. pressure. President Trump has threatened to "annihilate" Iran without a deal but suggested an agreement could come soon. The war began February 28 when the U.S. and Israel attacked Iran, which responded with strikes on Israel and Gulf states. The conflict has killed thousands and displaced millions, with Trump citing weakened Iranian nuclear capabilities as a goal.
