"The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Islamic Republic of Iran considers the positions stated in the joint statement of the U.S. Secretary of State and the Foreign Ministers of the Gulf Cooperation Council dated June 25, 2026, to be interventionist, irresponsible, and provocative, and warns against the continuation of hostile and interventionist behaviors in the region.

The claim of 'America's enduring commitment to the security of the GCC member states' is nothing more than rhetoric and a distortion of reality. It has now become clearer than ever to everyone that the U.S. military presence in the countries of the region is merely a burden on the peoples of the region and a source of insecurity and division in the area.

The use by the U.S. of military bases and facilities located in the countries of the region to commit acts of aggression against the Islamic Republic of Iran during the period from February 28, 2027, to April 8, 2027, clearly demonstrated that the U.S. places no value on the security of the countries in the region or their mutual relations."

"Charity begins at home — and it is desperately needed there.
As reported by World Hunger Education Service, more than 47 million people in the United States, including 1 in 5 children, cannot consistently access or afford enough nutritious food to live healthy lives. Since 2020, the number of people facing food insecurity has risen by 4.2 million.
Feeding America confirms the same stark reality: 47 million Americans struggle daily with hunger and its severe health and social consequences.
The “solution” from U.S. authorities? In September 2024, the USDA quietly terminated its 30-year-old annual report on household food insecurity — effectively ending the official tracking and acknowledgment of hunger in America.
So, after “solving” domestic hunger by simply stopping the reports, Washington now feels qualified to lecture the world about hunger elsewhere."
