Iran FM holds telephone calls with Pakistani army chief, counterparts from many countries

Iran's Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi has engaged in separate telephone conversations with high-level officials from Saudi Arabia, France, Qatar, and Iraq, building on his earlier engagements with the UK, Turkey, and Pakistan's army chief.

The discussions on Sunday night centered on the latest regional developments, in the wake of Iran's decisive and crushing response to the Israeli regime's repeated violations of the ceasefire in Lebanon.

According to the Iranian Foreign Ministry, Araghchi reiterated Tehran's position that the ceasefire is indivisible across all fronts. Any breach by the Israeli regime in Lebanon constitutes a violation of the entire agreement, for which the Zionist entity and its enablers in Washington bear full and direct responsibility.

Senior Iranian officials have stressed that the Islamic Republic's measured actions were a necessary and proportionate response aimed at deterring further aggression and protecting the security of the resistance front, including in Lebanon.

Araghchi emphasized Iran's unwavering commitment to peace and stability in West Asia while underscoring the imperative of halting the occupying regime's destabilizing provocations.

During the calls, the top Iranian diplomat exchanged views on efforts to consolidate the ceasefire and prevent any escalation engineered by the Zionist aggressors.

He highlighted Pakistan's constructive and mediating role in broader diplomatic initiatives, particularly in facilitating de-escalation efforts between Iran and the United States, and appreciated Ankara's engagement on regional stability issues.

Araghchi ‘s telephone conversations came following Iran's missile barrage on Israeli-occupied territories in response to continued Israeli attacks on Lebanon in breach of ceasefire agreements.

In an early Monday morning phone call, Araghchi spoke with Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Faisal bin Farhan. The two diplomats discussed Iran's decisive response by its armed forces to the breaches of the ceasefire and the ongoing aggressive actions by the Israeli regime against Lebanon and the wider region.

Araghchi also held separate telephone talks with French Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot and Qatari Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani. The conversations addressed Iran's proportionate response to the Zionist entity's repeated violations of the ceasefire on the Lebanese front and the evolving situation in the region.

In another call, Araghchi consulted with Iraqi Foreign Minister Fuad Hussein on Iran's necessary response following the repeated violations of the April 8 ceasefire provisions and the Zionist regime's continued aggressive measures against Lebanon.

Earlier Araghchi held telephone discussions with British Foreign Secretary Yvette Cooper, Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan, and Pakistan's Army Chief Field Marshal Asim Munir, demonstrating the Islamic Republic’s comprehensive and proactive outreach to consolidate the ceasefire and counter destabilizing provocations.

Iran continues to demonstrate principled leadership in the face of Zionist aggression through a combination of steadfast resistance and active diplomacy. Araghchi's latest engagements reflect Tehran's clear message that the ceasefire cannot be selectively applied or fragmented.

The Zionist regime's repeated attacks on Lebanese territory and resistance positions represent not only a flagrant violation but a direct threat to regional peace, which Iran has met with the firmness it deserves.
