Iran’s President Masoud Pezeshkian has expressed his disapproval of continuing the ongoing war. However, he emphasized the importance of enhancing Iran’s capacity to withstand future challenges, so that the nation does not find itself in a vulnerable position when negotiating. Addressing leaders from the country’s top universities, Pezeshkian urged these institutions to support the government in various sectors, including economics, management, culture, and literature. ISNA reported these sentiments.
Pezeshkian also underscored the necessity for students to actively participate in addressing national concerns, stating that they should not merely protest but rather actively engage in problem-solving. He affirmed his impartial stance, saying, "Whoever helps us solve the country’s problems, with whatever political viewpoint, I accept."
Regarding economic policies, Pezeshkian cautioned that measures must be tailored to Iran’s unique circumstances, as otherwise, they could result in detrimental outcomes rather than resolving the underlying issues.
