Tehran to “use all tools” in defence of its rights, official says

Iran will not make concessions in its dealings with the United States and will instead use all available means to defend its interests, the country’s deputy parliament speaker said, Iran International reports.

“We will use all available tools to secure our rights, and this does not mean surrendering to their coercion,” Ali Nikzad noted.

The lawmaker stressed that Iran would not yield to external pressure, warning that those expecting concessions in negotiations would ultimately be disappointed and face failure.
