Tehran; capital of diplomacy

Kanani called Tehran the capital of diplomacy against any unilateralism and militarism.

The spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs referred to the meetings held in Tehran, including the Astana Summit on Tuesday, saying: "After several weeks of diplomatic traffic and the presence of officials from different countries in Tehran, Iran once again hosted a very important and brilliant meeting. Currently, Tehran has become the capital of diplomacy and against unilateralism and militarism."

He continued: "Iran's dynamic, smart and pragmatic diplomacy has used all its power and capacity to stabilize security in the region and friendship with Muslim countries in the past months. The Islamic Republic of Iran is a balancing weight in regional issues, which plays an important role in Syria, and in the case of Ukraine crisis, Tehran is a place of reference and consultation."

He further said: "Our region needs a system of friendship, cooperation, neighborliness and collective security more than it needs fake coalitions with huge expenses from the pockets of the nations of the region.

The spokesman of Iran's Foreign Ministry says: "The countries of the region have not been treeated in a way to be prepared to be against Iran in the framework of US regional policies."

Speaking about the visit of US President Joe Biden to the region, Kanani said: "If the US government wants the stability and security of the region, it should stop interfering in the internal affairs of the countries in the region, establishing symbolic coalitions and exerting American values.

He added: "The countries of the region naturally have common interests and views, and they can strive for the best conditions for their security and benefits through regional dialogues."

Kanani added: "During Biden's visit to the region, the Israeli regime attempted to form a regional coalition to put pressure on Iran, and our assessment is that the US and the Israeli regime have failed to achieve their goals, and the messages we receive directly and indirectly from the countries of the region is that they do not want to face Iran in the framework of American regional policies."
