Reviewing the developments in foreign policy over the past year, Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi considered the Iranian epic defense against the all-out attack by the Zionist regime and the United States against Iran a turning point in our country's history.

Referring to the diplomatic apparatus' continuous efforts to defend the interests and rights of the Iranian nation, he called preserving national unity and cohesion a shared responsibility and a prerequisite for the success in confronting the evils of  enemies.

Araghchi praised the determination of the Iranian people in defending the country and thwarting the enemies in imposing their illegitimate and excessive demands, and considered the intelligence, wisdom, courage, and strong will of the Leader of the Revolution, the sacrifice of the Armed Forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran, and the national cohesion and solidarity of Iranians as key elements in shaping this historic victory.

The Foreign Minister while referring to the necessity of continuing to strengthen national power and authority in various aspects of defense, preserving and promoting social capital and national cohesion, and striving to resolve economic problems, emphasized the round-the-clock efforts of the government and the esteemed President himself to resolve and reduce economic problems.
