Iran welcomes the efforts of regional countries aimed at preventing tensions in the region, Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei said. “All regional countries understand that they have a stake in the future of the region and in developments that may occur. The U.S. war against Iran is not directed solely against one country; it is against the entire region and the security of all regional countries,” Baghaei said. “Experience has shown Iran that nothing except Iran’s power and deterrence capabilities can prevent the escalation of attacks by the opposing side against Iran,” Baghaei said. On the same day, U.S. President Donald Trump announced the end of the ceasefire with Iran.
