Iran's FM Abbas Araghchi Gives Interview in Central Tehran

Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi was seen walking among crowds gathered to mark the annual pro-Palestinian rally on Friday, among other Iranian Senior leaders, including Judiciary Chief Gholam-Hossein Mohseni-Ejei, and Police Commander Ahmad Reza Radan.

Foreign Minister Araghchi accused the United States and Israel of triggering turmoil in global energy markets following the outbreak of the war.

He said both countries “caused this catastrophe for the region and must be held accountable,” referring to rising global prices for oil and other energy resources since the conflict began.

In one video, Araghchi is seen as giving interview to Anadolu Agency during Al Quds Day march on Friday in Tehran.

He said that "Despite the brutal attacks by the Israeli regime and the US, our people have taken to the streets in the millions demonstrating their determination to support the Islamic Republic, Quds, Palestine"

Araghachi warned oil prices will rise due to US and Israeli actions in the region, and added that public defiance highlights Iranian people’s resolve, challenges adversaries power.

The Quds Day march proceeded despite the nearby blasts, underscoring the tense wartime atmosphere in Tehran as the conflict continues to reshape the region’s political and economic landscape.

He wrote on X that he is "Proud and honored to have accompanied the Strong and Resilient People of Iran to mark International Quds Day."

"Iranians will ALWAYS stand firm and NEVER cower before cowardly attacks," he added.
