Italy’s Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani has called on Iran to adopt a more diplomatic stance following a sharply critical speech by Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian at the United Nations General Assembly. Tajani’s comments come after Pezeshkian condemned the United States and vowed that Tehran would not yield to external pressures.
Describing the address as “very hard,” Tajani stressed that Italy is committed to supporting diplomatic efforts aimed at resolving tensions involving Iran. He urged Tehran to modify its approach and abandon its pursuit of nuclear weapons, underscoring the importance of maintaining open communication channels to defend its positions effectively.
Tajani’s appeal highlights Italy’s desire for a peaceful resolution to the ongoing disputes and reflects broader international concerns over Iran’s nuclear ambitions. The Italian foreign minister emphasized that a less confrontational approach from Iran could facilitate diplomatic dialogue and contribute to regional stability.
