Iranian president says US threats ‘will achieve nothing other than instability’

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian tells Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman in a phone call that Tehran always welcomes any process, within the framework of international law, that prevents war, Iranian media reports.

Pezeshkian also tells Prince Mohammed that US threats against the Islamic Republic will only result in instability.

“The threats and psychological operations of the Americans are aimed at disrupting the security of the region and will achieve nothing other than instability for them,” Pezeshkian tells the Saudi crown prince, according to his office, after a US aircraft carrier reached the region.

Pezeshkian tells Prince Mohammed that the “unity and cohesion” of Islamic countries can guarantee “lasting security, stability and peace in the region.”
