Khamenei Rejects U.S. Demands, Stands Firm on Iran’s Missile Program
Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei delivered a speech in Tehran today, rejecting any U.S. demands to curb Iran’s missile program and warning against Western influence in Iranian affairs. This comes as speculation grows over U.S. President Donald Trump’s letter to Iran, which Khamenei did not explicitly confirm receiving.
Key Points from Khamenei’s Speech:
• “Tehran will never accept demands to curb its missile program.”
• “The issue will not be limited to the nuclear file; they will impose new conditions, and we reject them.”
• “No matter the threats from America, we should not back down.”
• “Western civilization has its advantages, but we cannot follow its materialistic principles in our political and economic affairs.”
Notably, former Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif and ex-President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad were present at the meeting, signaling a united stance among Iran’s political elite.
This marks a further escalation in tensions between Washington and Tehran, as Trump has hinted at both diplomatic engagement and alternative measures regarding Iran’s nuclear and military ambitions.
