Iran's Embassy in Indonesia Amplifies Pezeshkian's UN Address
The embassy shared highlights of President Masoud Pezeshkian's UN General Assembly speech, emphasizing Iran's stance on defense and diplomacy.
Iran's embassy in Indonesia shared a social media post on Thursday spotlighting remarks President Masoud Pezeshkian delivered a day earlier during his address to the United Nations General Assembly in New York.
The embassy's post featured excerpts from the speech, in which Pezeshkian argued that Iran has long been a victim of terrorism rather than a source of it, and that the country's military capabilities exist for defensive purposes rather than for aggression against other states.
According to the excerpts highlighted by the embassy, Pezeshkian also reiterated that Tehran remains open to dialogue with the international community, while rejecting what he described as the language of force and coercion in international relations.
The embassy's decision to amplify the address through its social media channels in Jakarta reflects a broader effort by Iranian diplomatic missions abroad to circulate the president's UN remarks to international audiences. IRNA, Iran's state news agency, reported on the embassy's post as part of its coverage of reactions to Pezeshkian's General Assembly appearance.
The speech came during a UN General Assembly session at which world leaders addressed a range of security and diplomatic issues. The embassy's post did not specify further details of the president's remarks beyond these themes, and no additional commentary from Indonesian officials accompanied the report.
