Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian said Tehran is prepared to engage in dialogue to resolve outstanding disputes, but will not accept what he described as bullying or the use of force against his country, according to the state news agency IRNA.
Speaking in New York, Pezeshkian reiterated Iran's long-standing position that it has never sought to develop nuclear weapons, saying the country remains committed to the peaceful use of nuclear technology.
