Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi urged for increased dialogue and cooperation in the Middle East, rather than foreign military presence, during a virtual address to Indonesia's Global Town Hall 2026 on Saturday. In his remarks, Araghchi emphasized that sustainable security in the region cannot be dictated from outside. He warned that disregarding international law when it conflicts with the interests of major powers erodes the rule of law, and the UN's failure to address aggression and hold violators accountable could damage its credibility.
Araghchi stressed that sustainable security could be achieved through dialogue, trust-building, cooperation, and mutual respect among regional countries, instead of foreign military presence and the imposition of their will.
