Masoud Pezeshkian, in his speech at the UN General Assembly, emphasized continuing the Islamic Republic’s nuclear program and, at the same time, said that Tehran is ready for talks.

Marko Rubio, in response to Pezeshkian’s remarks and his criticism of Donald Trump’s administration, said that a government that massacres thousands of its own people in a single day has no right to comment on international laws.
