Iranian envoy sees no war soon, but warns ‘region should stay on its toes

ISLAMABAD: Iranian Ambassador to Pakistan Reza Amiri Moghadam said on Friday that he was confident that there would not be any war against the Islamic Republic in the foreseeable future, but the war of narratives and psychological war would continue against Iran.

While talking to a select group of media representatives in the federal capital, he said that Iran was fighting back the “Zionist and Western narrative” alongside military attacks, and that the US and Israel had a history of “deception and backstabbing”.

“But they have seen the response in the recent 12-day conflict, and Israel was almost on its knees when the US intervened,” he said. “Wars are not only fought with weapons but with the determination of the nation and the strength of society,” he added.

He added that the West has used all its cards in the June 2025 attack by the Zionist regime and the recent conspiracy when riots were held, and that the resistance movements in Lebanon, Yemen, and Syria have been weakened.

“While there are ups and downs in wars and broader conflicts, the US, Israel, and others have seen the advanced military capabilities as well as the strength of the Iranian nation, it is less likely there will be a war soon,” Mr Moghadam said.
