Iran's President Pezeshkian began his talk in UNGA 2026, showing photographs of children who lost their lives and accusing the US of the murder of innocent children. Pezeshkian slammed the US, saying it is a country that murdered Iran’s people also; it is a country that trains and protects terrorists but calls Iran the terrorist.
He said Iran’s innocent people were the targets in the cowardly attack by the US. Iran defended itself from the US and Israel, but he still said Iran did not bend its knee.
He condemned the attack on Iran’s universities, medical institutions, and other infrastructure. He also criticised Israel for using modern technologies for the genocide in Gaza.
He slammed Israel and the US, calling them as the protectors and creators of instability and destruction. He said Palestine remains a wound and called for peace in West Asia.
"For over 200 years, Iran has not attacked any territory or any country, but we have defended ourselves steadfastly; now we are being accused of causing instability and being terrorists. And we need power to defend ourselves, not to threaten societies with weapons. The people of Iran for the past seven months have been on the streets in support of their homeland. They are the biggest source of power for Iran,” he said in the address.
He also warned that the bombing of Iran will not go unanswered, and made clear that peaceful nuclear technology is a part of its inherent progress, in medical, food security, electricity, etc.
On the West Asia, war he asked that what else is the choice do the people have than to resist when their house is subjected to bombings and driven from their land and are made to bullying.
