Iran’s President Masoud Pezeshkian has said that there needs to be an “immediate cessation” of what he described as US-Israeli aggression to end the war and wider regional conflict, Reuters reports, citing a post on X by Iran’s embassy in India.
Pezeshkian spoke with India’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi by phone earlier in the day.
Pezeshkian told Modi that there should be guarantees to prevent a recurrence of such “aggression” in the future. He also called on the BRICS bloc of major emerging economies to play an independent role in halting aggression against Iran.
The Iranian president proposed a regional security framework comprising West Asian countries to ensure peace without foreign interference, according to the country’s embassy in India.
