Iran Says Regional Security Must Include Tehran as Central Stakeholder

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi emphasized that regional security cannot be achieved by marginalizing Iran. In his remarks, he insisted that any durable security framework for West Asia must treat Iran as a key participant rather than attempting to isolate it.

The statement aligns with Tehran's consistent stance that its geographic position, regional influence, and role in key issues render it essential for long-term stability in the area. The comments were cited by a social media account (@FirstSquaw).
