Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian declared this week that foreign pressure campaigns against Tehran are “doomed to fail,” as fragile peace holds following weeks of deadly US-Israeli attacks. Speaking to medical workers in Tehran, he emphasized Iran’s commitment to dialogue while condemning what he called “double standards” in global politics.
