Iranian Foreign Minister Araghchi:

I would like to make clear that these protests went through a number of phases:

First it was calm and peaceful. Then it started to reignite in a different fashion as new individuals infiltrated these protests and they turned violent.

As we witnessed in many countries, including those in the West and the United States, when protests turn violent, they are met with the security forces.

Iranian Foreign Minister Araghchi:

Armed operatives were seen among the protesters. Those armed operatives started to fire on security personnel.

And above all, they were not only firing on the security personnel, but they were also firing on civilian protesters. Their goal was clear: to increase the number of victims.

Why? Simply for the reason that Trump stated that in case the number of victims, in case the number of dead is high, we will intervene.

Trump on tariffs:

If the Supreme Court rules against the United States of America on this National Security bonanza, WE’RE SCREWED!

Iranian Foreign Minister Araghchi:

They strangely targeted mosques. And this is really surprising. No Iranian could dare to set fire on a place of worship. 350 mosques were set fire on.

White House on Iran:

Air strikes would be one of the many, many options that are on the table for Trump, diplomacy is always the first option for him.

White House:

What you are hearing publicly from the Iranian regime is quite different from the messages the administration is receiving privately.

Trump has an interest in exploring those messages.

The White House is considering an Iranian offer to restart nuclear talks even as Trump leans toward authorizing new military strikes.

JD Vance and some senior aides are urging Trump to try diplomacy first amid mass protests in Iran.

I emphasize: do not spread rumors.

UK's top military officer Air Chief Marshal Sir Richard Knighton:

We are not as ready as we need to be for the kind of full-scale conflict that we might face.

Zelensky:

What is happening in Iran now – large-scale protests, effectively an uprising – is a clear sign that things won’t get easier for Russia.

And every decent person on this planet truly wants the people of Iran to finally free themselves from the current regime that has brought so much evil to Ukraine and to other countries.

It is crucial that the world does not miss this moment when changes are possible. Every leader, every country, and international organizations must step in now and help the people remove those guilty of what Iran has sadly become.

Everything can be different.

Therefore, cartels cannot legally be classified as terrorist organizations.
