The head of Iran's judicial system has stated that while his country does not seek military conflict, it remains fully prepared to respond to any external threats.
Operative Information Center-OMM reports that Gholam-Hossein Mohseni-Ejei emphasized in his speech that Iran does not desire war but is not intimidated by the prospect of confrontation. "We do not welcome war, but we are not afraid of it; if our dignity is threatened, we will fight," the official noted. He further stated that legal measures regarding various attacks would continue, asserting that negotiations are only acceptable when conducted "without coercion" and without the imposition of conditions by opponents.
This statement comes at a time of significant regional shifts and heightened diplomatic activity involving major global powers. The Iranian judiciary plays a critical role in the country's governance and strategic signaling, often reflecting the broader stance of the state leadership on national security. Such rhetoric is frequently observed as a response to the geopolitical pressures and the firm foreign policy stance maintained by the administration of US President Donald Trump, as regional actors navigate complex security challenges in the Middle East.
