Orientul Mijlociu „n-are nevoie de un jandarm” american, spune preşedintele Iranului
Iran's President Masoud Pezeshkian stated that the Middle East does not require an American 'gendarme', emphasizing regional security should be managed by local powers. He made these remarks during a meeting in India, highlighting ongoing tensions with the U.S. and Israel, particularly over the strategic Strait of Hormuz. Following attacks on Iran, the country has blocked this vital shipping route, which previously facilitated a significant portion of the world's oil and gas trade. Iran now requires ships to obtain permission to pass and is considering service fees, while U.S. military actions continue. Pezeshkian reiterated Iran's commitment to peace despite ongoing conflicts, as the blockade contributes to rising oil prices.
