Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA)

Iran Will ‘Never Seek To Build A Nuclear Bomb,’ Declares President

September 29, 2025 Abdul Rahman, People's Dispatch. , , , , , ,
While addressing the 80th annual session of the UN General Assembly on Wednesday, September 24, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian reiterated his country’s resolve to not seek a nuclear weapon. Pezeshkian claimed that it is not the threat of sanctions or war but its religious conviction and the dictate of the country’s supreme leader which prevents Iran from developing nuclear bombs and any other kind of weapons of mass destruction. He questioned the countries accusing Iran of developing a nuclear bomb while they themselves possess the “largest nuclear arsenals” and have violated the provisions of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) through the years to make their weapons more deadly. Pezeshkian rejected the allegations as baseless and spurious, claiming Iran’s nuclear program has always been for peaceful purposes.

‘No Doubt They Will Attack’: Max Blumenthal Meets Iran’s President

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian arrived late to a September 24, 2025 meeting with American antiwar figures on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly. He had come from a fateful tete-a-tete with Emmanuel Macron, where he attempted to cajole his French counterpart into delaying expiration of the JCPOA nuclear deal rather than instituting snapback sanctions. Pezeshkian’s lobbying was fruitless; the Europeans had already decided to ratchet up the economic war on Tehran. Meanwhile, Israel was preparing for another attack on Iran with American support practically guaranteed. “No doubt they will attack Iran. And we will defend ourselves vigorously,” Pezeshkian declared to his audience of about 25 antiwar journalists, activists and think tank analysts gathered inside a conference hall in a Midtown Manhattan hotel.

UN Security Council Reimposes Comprehensive International Sanctions On Iran

September 22, 2025 Abdul Rahman, People's Dispatch. , , , ,
The United Nations Security Council (UNSC) voted to reimpose severe and comprehensive international economic sanctions on Iran intended to exert maximum pressure on the country’s economy, on Friday, September 19, following pressure from the UK, France, and Germany (E3). With sanctions looming over the West Asian nation, European leaders suggested there may be a chance for a last-minute negotiated settlement. E3 wrote a letter to the UNSC in August demanding snapback sanctions against Iran by the end of this month in the absence of a negotiated deal on its nuclear program. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi, however, claimed that the Europeans were reluctant to consider the latest plan Iran had presented to them and accused them of trying to find excuses to avoid a diplomatic solution to the issue.
