Tehran, June 21 (V7N) — Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has sharply criticized the United States’ stance on the ongoing conflict between Iran and Israel, calling it a betrayal of diplomatic principles. Speaking on Friday, Araghchi stated that the key issue now is to observe the true mindset of the U.S. administration regarding resolving the crisis through dialogue. Otherwise, he warned, the U.S. has ulterior motives and is determined to attack Iran regardless of diplomatic efforts.

Araghchi accused the U.S. of possibly having premeditated plans to confront Iran, asserting that the current diplomatic rhetoric is merely a cover to conceal their true intentions. “Perhaps this has been their plan all along,” he said. “Now they may just be using various diplomatic statements to mask their real agenda.”

The remarks come amid heightened tensions in the region following increased confrontations between Iran and Israel. The U.S. has positioned itself as a key player in attempting to manage the crisis, yet Iran remains deeply skeptical of Washington’s intentions, highlighting a growing distrust that complicates any efforts toward peaceful resolution.

Araghchi’s comments underscore the diplomatic deadlock and the escalating suspicion that the U.S. is not genuinely committed to dialogue but rather seeks to justify military action against Iran. This criticism reflects broader concerns within Tehran about U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East and signals the potential for further escalation if diplomatic channels continue to falter.
