Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has rejected calls for ceasefire while accusing the US and Israel of breaking the deal reached to end last year’s 12-day war.
In an interview with NBC News, Araghchi said the US and Israel had already shattered the ceasefire reached to end last year’s 12-day war, adding, “And now you want to ask for a ceasefire again? This doesn’t work like this."
“There needs to be a permanent end to the war," he said. “Unless we get to that, I think we need to continue fighting for the sake of our people and our security."
