Iran's parliament speaker praises Pezeshkian's UN address on nation's ancient civilization
Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf said President Masoud Pezeshkian's speech to the UN General Assembly reflected Iran's national strength and its 3,000-year-old civilizational heritage.

Iran's Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf praised President Masoud Pezeshkian's address to the United Nations General Assembly, saying the speech reflected the strength of the Iranian nation and its roots in a civilization spanning some 3,000 years, according to IRNA.
Ghalibaf's remarks framed Pezeshkian's UN appearance as a moment that projected Iran's historical identity and national resilience onto the world stage, positioning the address as more than a routine diplomatic statement.
The parliament speaker's comments align with a broader pattern in which senior Iranian officials have sought to tie the country's foreign policy messaging to its long historical and cultural lineage, presenting Iran's positions internationally as grounded in enduring national character rather than short-term political calculation.
Pezeshkian's speech came amid a wider slate of addresses from world leaders at the UN General Assembly this week, with Iranian officials continuing to use the platform to articulate the country's stance on regional and international issues.
IRNA did not report further specifics from Ghalibaf's remarks beyond his characterization of the speech's significance. Iranian state media is expected to continue highlighting reactions to Pezeshkian's UN address in the coming days.
