Masoud Pezeshkian @drpezeshkian X.com Talking to leaders of Russia and Pakistan, I reaffirmed Iran's commitment to peace in the region. The only way to end this war—ignited by the Zionist regime & US— is recognizing Iran's legitimate rights, payment of reparations, and firm int'l guarantees against future aggression. 1:07 PM • 3/11/26 • 9.9K Views

⚠️ President of Iran:

“The only way to end this war—ignited by the Zionist regime & US— is recognizing Iran's legitimate rights, payment of reparations, and firm int'l guarantees against future aggression.”

Bombing of Iranian oil facilities is causing a health and environmental nightmare Acid rain, toxic air, contaminated water and soil, and the possibility of retaliatory strikes across the Middle East.

Hitting oil facilities has a steep cost for human health and the environment. If you claim to be rooting for ordinary Iranian people who oppose the regime, well, this hurts everybody. The latest from Damien Gayle of @theguardian.com via @climatedesk.org

Iran cannot participate in the 2026 World Cup after the United States killed their leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, the sports minister, Ahmad Donyamali, said on Wednesday. The United States and Israel launched airstrikes on Iran nearly two weeks ago, killing the Islamic Republic’s supreme leader, leading to a region-wide conflict in the Gulf. “Considering that this corrupt regime [the US] has assassinated our leader, under no circumstances can we participate in the World Cup,” the minister told state television. “Our children are not safe and, fundamentally, such conditions for participation do not exist. “Given the malicious actions they have carried out against Iran, they have forced two wars on us over eight or nine months and have killed and martyred thousands of our people. Therefore, we certainly cannot have such a presence.”

Iran will not participate in the men’s World Cup.

“Considering that this corrupt regime [the US] has assassinated our leader, under no circumstances can we participate in the World Cup. Our children are not safe and, fundamentally, such conditions for participation do not exist.”

“.. The US and Israel ‘must consider the possibility that they will be engaged in a long-term war of attrition that will destroy the entire American economy and the world economy.’”
