“The enemies must take their wish for the surrender of the Iranian people to their graves,” said Pezeshkian, in a speech broadcast on state TV.
The development comes a day after US President Donald Trump said there would be no deal struck with Iran except “unconditional surrender,” a week after launching war with Israel against Tehran.
“After that, and the selection of a GREAT & ACCEPTABLE Leader(s), we, and many of our wonderful and very brave allies and partners, will work tirelessly to bring Iran back from the brink of destruction,” Trump said in a social media post on Friday, adding that they would work to boost Iran’s economy.
