'Iran Fully Prepared': FM Araghchi Says US Plotting Against Oil And Nuclear Sites, Warns Of 'Surprises'

Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has issued a stark warning regarding perceived threats from the United States, particularly aimed at Iran's oil and nuclear facilities. He emphasized that while Iran is fully prepared to defend itself, the country does not harbor any intentions of harming ordinary Americans. Araghchi's statements come in the context of rising tensions between Iran and the US, particularly following the US's withdrawal from the nuclear deal and the imposition of sanctions that have severely impacted Iran's economy. He urged for dialogue, reflecting on the American public's desire to disengage from foreign conflicts. The Iranian government remains vigilant, asserting that any aggressive moves by the US could lead to unexpected consequences, which he referred to as 'surprises'. This rhetoric underscores the ongoing geopolitical strife and Iran's commitment to safeguarding its national interests amidst external pressures.
