In comments at a meeting with economic activists, members of the Guild Chamber, and a group of merchants, held in Tehran on Wednesday, Qalibaf said Iran is ready for both dignified diplomacy and a defensive response that would make any aggressor regret their actions.

He underscored that if the US chooses a path of diplomacy that respects Iran’s national dignity and mutual interests, Tehran would engage constructively at the negotiating table.

However, the speaker cautioned, any attempt to repeat past mistakes through deception, lies, flawed analyses, or attacks during negotiations would provoke a decisive response from the Iranian nation and its defense forces.

Qalibaf warned that such actions would result in the US experiencing the Iranian nation and defense forces’ “hard punch”./tasnim
