“In the past 48 hours, the heinous lie that the unlawful Israeli and US bombing of Iran was motivated by an imminent nuclear threat has been thoroughly debunked by

- The International Atomic Energy Agency Chief, who has explicitly stated that Iran ‘is not and was not’ developing nuclear weapons.

- My Omani counterpart, H.E. AlBusaidi, an intermediary trusted by both Iran and the US, who has made clear that there was never any Iranian ‘nuclear threat’,” Araqchi said in a post on his X account on Sunday night.

“Iran did not kill diplomacy. Those who blew up the negotiating table did,” he added.

“Israel targeted diplomacy because its real fear is the failure of its ‘Iran Demonization Project’,” Araqchi said.

“POTUS entered office promising to put an end to Netanyahu's bamboozling of Obama and Biden. It's not too late to reverse course,” the Iranian foreign minister stated./tasnim
