Iran will never seek to build a nuclear bomb: President Masoud Pezeshkian at UNGA

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian, in his address at the United Nations General Assembly, has said that Iran has “never sought and will never seek to build a nuclear bomb”.

“I hereby declare once more before this assembly that Iran has never sought and will never seek to build a nuclear bomb,” he said.

He also voiced strong criticism of Israel’s actions, particularly over its occupation of Palestinian territories and rhetoric around the creation of a “greater Israel.” “After nearly two years of genocide, mass starvation, the perpetuation of apartheid within the occupied territories and aggression against its neighbours, the ludicrous and delusional scheme of a ‘greater Israel’ is being proclaimed with brazenness by the highest echelons of that regime,” he stated.
