Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian stated that his country's approach relies on mutual understanding and resolving disputes through negotiation, while affirming that Tehran will "stand firm" in the face of economic pressure. Pezeshkian emphasized that preemptive measures taken by his government have prevented the United States from achieving its objectives through its current pressure campaign.
​The remarks follow the Trump administration's announcement on Monday expanding secondary sanctions on global entities and nations conducting business with Iran under "Operation Economic Outcast," initiated under the directives of the U.S. President. The escalation comes as Washington significantly intensifies economic pressure on Tehran as the conflict approaches its sixth month.
