Share:
Iran's supreme leader has reportedly stated that the country does not want war, according to a statement attributed to the top Iranian official. The declaration comes as Iran agreed this week to a two-week ceasefire with the United States that could potentially lead to peace negotiations. The development represents a significant diplomatic opening between the two countries, which have maintained hostile relations for decades following the 1979 Iranian Revolution and subsequent breakdown of diplomatic ties.
