Iran, Araghchi: ‘A crude pressure tactic from the US, but we won’t give in’

Milan, 8 May (LaPresse) – "Whenever a diplomatic solution is on the table, the United States opts for reckless military action. Is this a crude pressure tactic? Or the result of a troublemaker who, once again, is dragging the US president into another quagmire? Whatever the cause, the result is the same: Iranians never give in to pressure.‘ Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi wrote this in a post on X, adding: ’Incidentally, the CIA is wrong. Our missile inventory and launch capability are not at 75% compared to 28 February. The correct figure is 120%. As for our readiness to defend our people: 1000%." The reference is to a CIA analysis published yesterday by the Washington Post.
