Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi says that the perception of Iran being a weak country has been completely dispelled, semi-official news agency Tasnim reports.

The outlet quotes him as arguing that Tehran’s postwar foreign policy “will be fundamentally different from the period before the conflict”.

He adds that the US-Israeli war “demonstrated Iran’s resilience and changed the international perception of the country”, noting that the US and Israel have failed to achieve any of the objectives they pursued, such as regime change, and unconditional surrender and internal unrest.
