The Iran Project : Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has asserted that the US government has no authority to dictate the Islamic Republic’s foreign policy.
According to The Iran Project, In a post on X on Sunday, Araghchi stated that the era of US control over Iran's foreign policy ended with the 1979 Islamic Revolution, which saw the overthrow of the US-backed Pahlavi regime in Iran, headed by Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, known as the ‘Shah.’
“The United States government has no authority, or business, dictating Iranian foreign policy. That era ended in 1979,” the top Iranian diplomat said.
Araghchi further denounced the US government’s support for Israeli terrorism and genocide in Gaza, spending tens of billions of dollars between October 2023 and September 2024.
“Biden was last year bamboozled into handing over unprecedented 23 billion dollars to a genocidal regime. More than 60,000 Palestinians killed and the world holds America fully accountable,” Araghchi said.
