“FOREVER WARS”
The 12-day war between Iran and Israel saw it, along with the US, launching strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities at Fordo, Isfahan and Natanz.
A ceasefire between Iran and Israel has held since Jun 24.
On Jun 16, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu did not rule out plans to assassinate Iran’s supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, saying it would “end the conflict” after reports emerged at the time that US President Donald Trump had vetoed the move.
During the interview with Carlson, Pezeshkian accused Netanyahu of pursuing his “own agenda” of “forever wars” in the Middle East, and urged the US not to be dragged into it.
“The US administration should refrain from getting involved in a war that is not America’s war, it is Netanyahu’s war,” he said.
He added that his country has “no problem” restarting nuclear talks, provided that trust can be reestablished between the two countries.
“We see no problem in re-entering the negotiations,” the Iranian president said.
“There is a condition … for restarting the talks. How are we going to trust the United States again?”
“We re-entered the negotiations, then how can we know for sure that in the middle of the talks the Israeli regime will not be given the permission again to attack us.”
