Gold Prices Plummet in India Amid US-Iran Tensions

Gold Prices Plummet in India Amid US-Iran Tensions

On 10 June 2026, the price of 24K gold at ₹149,090 per 10 grams, reflecting a loss of ₹3,230 compared to its previous close. Meanwhile, 22K gold is at ₹136,666 per 10 grams. Gold prices in India are largely influenced by international spot gold rates, US dollar fluctuations, and import duties on Gold among other things. Gold prices in India continue to remain higher than in Dubai. On 10 June 2026 the price of 24K gold in India is at ₹149,090 per 10 grams, while in Dubai it is ₹132,623, reflecting a difference of ₹16,467 or 12.42%. Similarly, 22K and 18K gold prices in India were also about 12.42% costlier compared to the price of gold in Dubai , not accounting for fees, duties, and taxes. Gold prices extended sharp declines on the back of renewed geopolitical hostilities between the US and Iran, which drove oil prices higher and increased the expectation of rate hikes by the US Federal Reserve . Oil prices surged from their weekly lows as the US military carried out new strikes against Iran after its helicopter was brought down by Tehran. Market sentiment over the US-Iran ceasefire remains fragile as the Strait of Hormuz remains under dual blockade. ALSO READ Gold slips below $4,200, silver down 48% from January peak on Fed rate hike fears Over the past three months, gold prices have declined by more than 19%, as investors divert towards interest-yielding assets. Additionally, boosted safe-haven demand for the greenback has also weighed negatively on the yellow metal. Analysts suggest that gold prices may extend further declines, weighed by increased expectations of tighter monetary policy globally and stronger-than-expected key US data. Uncertainties over the three-month-stretched West Asia conflict continue to limit the scope of upside for the yellow metal as rising energy costs have heightened inflationary fears. “ MCX Gold August may continue to drop to Rs. 149,000/10g in sessions to come,” said Jigar Trivedi, Senior Research Analyst at Indusind Securities. Retail investors are advised to track not just domestic rates but also international trends before making buying decisions.

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], June 10 (ANI): Actor Upasana Singh expressed admiration for Prime Minister Narendra Modi, saying his leadership inspired her to vote for the first time and has brought significant benefits to the country.

However, that perception changed after Modi assumed office. “I am a big fan of Modi ji. I didn’t used to vote. I used to think that all the parties are the same, as many people do. But during Modi ji’s time, I got my voter ID made for the first time and started voting,” she told ANI. . The actor credited the Prime Minister’s leadership with bringing positive changes to the country and said she believes India has benefited greatly under his tenure. “I definitely believe that with Modi ji’s arrival, our country has benefited a lot….with Modi ji’s arrival, our country has benefited a lot, and most of his decisions are absolutely right,” Singh said. She also spoke about the sense of security she feels as a citizen, attributing it to the Prime Minister’s leadership. “Today we feel very safe in our country. The reason for that is Modi ji,” she added. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has officially become the longest-continuously serving elected Prime Minister of India. Completing 4,399 consecutive days in office today, PM Modi surpassed the record of 4,398 days held by the country’s first Prime Minister, Jawaharlal Nehru, for continuous service following the first general elections in 1952.

Trinamool Congress Rebel Leader Denies Merger Speculation with Congress

Amid the ongoing political turmoil within the Trinamool Congress in West Bengal, rebel leader Ritabrata Banerjee has outrightly denied any merger speculation with the Congress. Speaking to ANI, he categorically said that his faction is neither going to the Congress nor is there any merger plan at any level. He said that this whole matter is related to the internal organization of the Trinamool Congress and has nothing to do with the Congress. Ritabrata Banerjee also claimed that he has 64 MLAs with him now, while the number was 58 earlier. According to him, all these MLAs will soon submit a letter of support to the Speaker. He said that their support is increasing continuously and the situation will be clearer in the coming time. He dismissed the merger talk and said that it is incomprehensible who is merging with whom. According to him, MPs, MLAs, Panchayat and Zilla Parishad members are not joining the Congress under any circumstances. After the assembly elections in the Trinamool Congress, resignations and a ruckus in the Rajya Sabha, Mamata Banerjee is also resigning from the membership of the Rajya Sabha.

Samajwadi Party Challenges BJP's Hindutva Agenda Over Ayodhya Ram Mandir Embezzlement

Samajwadi Party Challenges BJP's Hindutva Agenda Over Ayodhya Ram Mandir Embezzlement

This time, the Samajwadi Party is trying to challenge the BJP in the name of Sanatan's respect. SP chief Akhilesh Yadav seems to be moving ahead with a straightforward strategy on the issue of Hindutva. From major disturbances and loss of lives in Mahakumbh 2025 to the Manikarnika Ghat episode in Varanasi and Swami Avimukteshwaranand case in Prayagraj, SP chief Akhilesh Yadav has now opened a front on the embezzlement of Ayodhya's Shri Ram Mandir. The SP chief is trying to challenge the BJP's Hindutva agenda in the name of Sanatan's respect instead of directly opposing it. The issue of Ram Mandir has been uncomfortable with the BJP and is creating a public debate. The issue of Ram Mandir and Hindutva has long been beneficial to the BJP. It is considered to be the biggest stakeholder in the BJP's record victory in the recent Bengal elections. In the run-up to the 2027 assembly elections in Uttar Pradesh, the BJP is once again preparing for an aggressive campaign.

Congress Fails to Secure Vice-President in Rajgarh as BJP Surprises with Unopposed Win

Congress Fails to Secure Vice-President in Rajgarh as BJP Surprises with Unopposed Win

Rajgarh in Pachhad constituency of Sirmaur district witnessed a major twist on Wednesday with the Congress party not being able to make its vice-president despite having 5 councillors out of 7 wards. Significantly, despite having 5 councillors, the Congress party was elected unopposed for the post of president of Nagar Panchayat Rajgarh with Vikram Zaldar and two councillors along with Narendra Thakur of the Bharatiya Janata Party. For the post of president and vice-president, no councillor made any nomination before the SDM and Returning Officer. In the election of president and vice-president, the BJP laid such a political bed. The Congress was upset. The post of vice-president in the Nagar Panchayat was given unopposed to the BJP, which has only two out of 7 councillors. The Congress party has more than an absolute majority. This development is being seen as a setback for the Congress on the post of vice-president. The name of the vice-president was also nominated by the Congress.

Starlink's Indian Rollout Frozen Amid Security Concerns

Starlink's Indian Rollout Frozen Amid Security Concerns

On June 9, 2026, Bloomberg published a story—based on unnamed sources—saying the Ministry of Home Affairs had blocked Starlink’s final operational sign-off, freezing its commercial rollout in the country. Security officials worried they’d lose control over a US-run network, especially given mounting geopolitical tensions. They wondered whether SpaceX would keep up with local security rules, especially when foreign governments got involved. Reports that Starlink terminals popped up in the Middle East conflict—specifically in Iran, where they don’t have a license—only made these concerns more urgent. Starlink wasted no time firing back. The next day, the company called Bloomberg’s claims “unsubstantiated and highly misleading.” Starlink’s Vice President of Business Operations, Lauren Dreyer, jumped onto X to set the record straight. She said Starlink was still in “active and productive discussions” with the Indian government. They’ve played by the book, she said, following every rule and requirement, and the response from officials has been “encouraging”—in her words, nothing but optimism about Starlink’s ability to connect India’s far-flung rural regions. To show it was serious about India’s security concerns, Starlink announced a “bespoke deployment model,” built specifically to fit India’s strategic landscape. That’s essential because the Department of Telecommunications—who handed Starlink its Unified License with GMPCS (Global Mobile Personal Communication by Satellite) approval in June 2025—has strict demands. Service providers must allow legal interception, keep Indian customer data on Indian servers, and localize at least 20 percent of their network infrastructure within a few years. Starlink has set up key pieces already, including a big hub in Mumbai and a network of about 10 gateway stations across the country. But without that final security clearance and with satellite spectrum pricing debates dragging on—the service remains stuck at the starting line. These hurdles come at a huge moment for SpaceX, which plans to go public on Nasdaq on June 12, 2026. With pricing settled the night before, they’re shooting for $135 per share, selling 556.6 million shares, to raise $75 billion at a $1.75 trillion valuation. If everything goes as planned, it’ll go down as the biggest IPO in history. Starlink is the engine behind these numbers, pulling in $11.4 billion last year—61 percent of SpaceX’s total revenue. Cracking the Indian market is crucial for SpaceX’s future. The company already has deals in place with Reliance Jio and Bharti Airtel; everything’s lined up. Now, all that’s left is the final nod from India’s government.

Nathwani's Nomination Papers Found Valid for Rajya Sabha Elections in Jharkhand

The nomination papers of Parimal Nathwani, an independent candidate supported by the BJP, for the Rajya Sabha elections in Jharkhand have been found to be valid. Amid the ongoing political controversy over the nomination of Parimal Nathwani, the Returning Officer on Wednesday announced that his documents have been found to be "correct." The announcement came at a time when the Congress is protesting in Ranchi demanding the cancellation of the nomination of Nathwani, a Rajya Sabha member from Andhra Pradesh and an industrialist. Returning Officer Ranjit Kumar said in his order, "The nomination papers of Parimal Nathwani have been found valid and are accepted under Section-36 of the Representation of the People Act, 1951." Nathwani had filed his nomination papers as the third candidate for the Rajya Sabha elections in Jharkhand on Monday. Elections are to be held for two Rajya Sabha seats in the state.

Indian Banks' Asset Quality Expected to Improve Amid Geopolitical Tensions

Indian Banks' Asset Quality Expected to Improve Amid Geopolitical Tensions

The asset quality of Indian banks is expected to further improve over the next year, providing cushion against pressure on margins, liquidity and credit growth arising from geopolitical tensions and broader macroeconomic uncertainties. According to consensus estimates compiled by S&P Global Market Intelligence, the gross non-performing asset (NPA) ratio of State Bank of India is seen declining to 0.92% by March 2027 from 0.96% at the end of FY26. HDFC Bank ‘s bad loan ratio is projected to improve to 0.76% from 0.78%. The report attributed the betterment to moderating stress in unsecured retail segments such as personal loans, credit cards and microfinance. The banking sector’s asset quality has steadily improved over the past few years, with the industry’s aggregate bad loan ratio falling to its lowest level in nearly a decade as lenders cleaned up balance sheets and tightened underwriting standards, the report said. The improvement comes at a time when banks are facing pressure on profitability. Following cumulative policy rate cuts of 125 basis points in 2025, net interest margins (NIMs) across major lenders have narrowed. Axis Bank reported a 15-basis-point sequential decline in NIM to 3.39% in the March quarter, while SBI’s margin fell 14 basis points to 2.71%. Analysts expect margins to remain largely stable, although elevated funding costs and weak deposit growth could limit any recovery. The report noted that the West Asia conflict could deter foreign investors from Indian capital markets, putting pressure on liquidity and deposit growth. According to Ankit Bihani, equity research analyst at Nomura, this could affect loan growth and net interest margins. Geopolitical tensions have already weighed on the investor sentiment. The report said 18 of the 20 major listed banks in India witnessed a decline in market capitalisation during the March quarter amid a broad-based sell-off across sectors. Citing comments made by HDFC Bank Chief Financial Officer Srinivasan Vaidyanathan during an April earnings call, the report said the future trajectory of margins would depend on liquidity conditions, borrowing requirements and oil prices, with geopolitical uncertainty prompting a pause in the interest rate cycle.

India's Party Fragmentation: A Systemic Issue or Natural Phenomenon?

India's Party Fragmentation: A Systemic Issue or Natural Phenomenon?

It is an old and very deep question in the politics of India that why a party is not able to keep itself united as soon as it goes out of power. On the other hand, how does the party in power make others its'ardali'( allies). If you look at this question from the angle of'BJP versus everyone else ', the picture becomes clearer. Today, the political equation that is being formed in India is that there is a central force (BJP) on the one hand and many small and big regional parties on the other hand, which do not have a common idea or organizational structure. There are 4 major reasons why parties break up as soon as they go out of power: Now the question is whether this is all'natural ', or the party in power has a well-planned plan. According to the report of Indian Express, this is not a single incident, but a system. If you look at the figures of the last 11 years (ID3 >), then 95% of the big opposition parties under investigation by the CBI and the Chief Minister are not speaking against the ruling party, while it is not the most dangerous case, and the Chief Minister is speaking against the Aam Aadmi Party.

Fadnavis Rejects Rahul Gandhi's Claim: Modi Won't Lose Power Soon

Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis has reacted sharply to Congress leader Rahul Gandhi's recent statement. He said that Rahul Gandhi repeatedly claims that Prime Minister Narendra Modi will be out of power soon, but the political history of the last decade tells a different story. Fadnavis said that such statements are more based on hopes and fantasies than reality. Devendra Fadnavis said, "What Rahul Gandhi is trying to do is to assure himself and his party workers that there will be a miracle and Prime Minister Modi will be out of power within a year. For the last 10 years, similar predictions and hopes have been made, but those so-called miracles have never come true." He added, "Prime Minister Modi has been constantly setting new political records. A victory like Bengal has shocked not only the country but also political observers around the world. So I don't think such statements should be taken very seriously. These are based on hopes and fantasies."

India's PM Modi Completes 12 Years in Office, Surpassing Jawaharlal Nehru's Record

India's PM Modi Completes 12 Years in Office, Surpassing Jawaharlal Nehru's Record

New Delhi: A resolution highlighting Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s 12-year tenure in office was moved during the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) meeting held at Bharat Mandapam in the national capital on Wednesday, according to sources. The resolution was proposed by Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister and TDP president N Chandrababu Naidu, who spoke about Prime Minister Modi’s leadership and the milestones achieved during his tenure. The proposal focused on the Prime Minister’s 12 years in office and his role in providing stable governance and leadership to the country. The resolution was seconded by Nagaland Chief Minister and NPF leader Neiphiu Rio, who expressed support for the proposal and highlighted the NDA government’s efforts towards development and inclusive growth. Sources said the discussion around the resolution centred on Prime Minister Modi’s 12-year journey in public office, key policy initiatives undertaken during this period, and the NDA’s vision for the future. The resolution was presented in the presence of senior NDA leaders and chief ministers attending the alliance meeting at Bharat Mandapam in New Delhi. Earlier, Prime Minister Narendra Modi shared Jhalmuri with leaders of the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) during the meeting, where alliance partners congratulated him on becoming India’s longest-serving Prime Minister. The Prime Minister was warmly congratulated by the assembly of NDA leaders for becoming India’s longest-continuously serving Prime Minister. By completing 4,399 days in office, Prime Minister Modi has officially surpassed the previous record held by the nation’s first Prime Minister, Jawaharlal Nehru. Later, the Prime Minister and NDA leaders also posed for a group photograph at Bharat Mandapam. As of June 10, the Prime Minister has completed 4,399 days in office, officially surpassing the previous record held by India’s first Prime Minister, Jawaharlal Nehru. While India’s first Prime Minister, Jawaharlal Nehru, originally assumed office in 1947 and won the country’s first general election in 1951-52, he remained in office until his passing in 1964. Meanwhile, Indira Gandhi, India’s first woman Prime Minister, served for a little less than 16 years, but her tenure was spread across two separate stints. This achievement of PM Modi marks over twelve years of continuous leadership at the helm of the nation. In a statement acknowledging the occasion, the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) on Wednesday extended its warm congratulations to Prime Minister Modi as he achieved a historic milestone – becoming India’s longest-serving democratically elected Prime Minister in consecutive terms. Officials within the PMO highlighted the hallmark characteristics that have defined his tenure, noting that his administration has been defined by stability, transparency, and a resolute commitment to the nation’s progress. This momentous tenure has also witnessed the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) transforming into the national political hegemon, consistently expanding its footprint to newer regions and attracting widespread support from myriad communities.

Pawar Defends Indira Gandhi Amid Controversy Over Operation Blue Star

The controversy started with the statement of Girish Mahajan, a minister in the Maharashtra government, about Operation Blue Star. Even the central leadership of the BJP has expressed displeasure over this statement. Even now, former CM Sharad Pawar has targeted Girish Mahajan for his statement. Actually, Girish Mahajan called Operation Blue Star a'black day '. Now, on this, Sharad Pawar said, "A minister of the Maharashtra cabinet went to a Sikh society event yesterday. I have nothing to say when he went there. But the speech he gave was ridiculous. He criticized Indira Gandhi by making very big comments. Indira Gandhi worked to organize the country after independence." Addressing the workers at the 27th Foundation Day program of the Nationalist Congress Party in Mumbai, Sharad Pawar further said, "Indira Gandhi made important contributions to increase India's prestige in the world. She was a great personality. Indira Gandhi never compromised the country's prestige." Pawar also said, "Some wrong statements were made by some people on the way she was assassinated."

AI Systemisation: Turning Efficiency Gains into Measurable Business Impact

AI Systemisation: Turning Efficiency Gains into Measurable Business Impact

New Delhi, [India] June 10 (ANI): The real test for artificial intelligence in 2026 isn’t adoption, it’s systemisation. Suguru Kawashima, CFO and Head of Global Business, Findy Inc, Japan, argued that individual engineers are already using AI for efficiency gains, but organisations still lack the data and feedback loops to turn those gains into measurable business impact. The next phase will focus on “kaizen for AI”, he said, which will include collecting developer data, identifying bottlenecks, and running continuous retrospectives to scale productivity across teams. For global expansion, India is becoming the proving ground, with its software talent density and diverse tech hubs forcing product localisation that can then travel worldwide. Suguru, invited by JETRO and working for a Tokyo-headquartered Japanese company, will speak at an event today on “how to shift from AI to real business impact.” His firm provides analytics tools that measure AI developer productivity. “Everyone now they’re getting a standard to use AI. But individually, it’s getting more efficient. But think about the organisation level. The systemisation is needed,” he said. The company’s approach is data-driven retrospectives — the Japanese “kaizen” method applied to engineering teams — to collect metrics, spot friction points, and improve workflows in the AI era. He moved to Bengaluru two years ago because India is “the technology centre in the world.” Clients like Sony and Toyota already run development teams here, making it essential to understand the ecosystem to serve both Japanese and global markets. That shift also exposed localisation challenges. “Even though our product is fit for the Japanese market, it’s not a case to also adapt to the Indian market as well. Also, speaking about the Indian market, there’s a difference between Delhi, Gurugram, Bangalore, Hyderabad, and Mumbai,” he noted. The struggle now is understanding Indian tech leadership needs and adapting the product accordingly. Comparing Japan to India, Suguru said Japan leads in hardware manufacturing, but India is more advanced in software engineering. “I feel that Japan has to become a better partner with India and to the global market together.” As a startup, his goal is to collaborate with Indian companies and talent, combine Japan’s manufacturing strengths with India’s software capabilities, and build products for global demand. His session will focus on turning engineering data into organisational insight — the next step if AI is to deliver impact beyond individual efficiency.

TMC in Crisis: Rebel Leader Sayani Ghosh Considers Joining BJP

Mamata Banerjee would never have thought that after losing the assembly elections in West Bengal, her party TMC would have to fight for survival. For the past few days, there has been a storm within the TMC that even if a big leader resigns, it seems normal. The name of Sayani Ghosh, the most prominent of Mamata Banerjee, is also among the 20 rebel MPs who have rebelled against the party. According to reports, Sayani Ghosh's politics, who once openly challenged the BJP, has taken a U-turn. The group of 20 MPs who are considering supporting the NDA government in the Lok Sabha includes Sayani Ghosh, the MP from Jadavpur. The leader of this group is Kakoli Ghosh, who has even said that he can join the BJP. His aggressive campaign against the BJP during the West Bengal assembly elections brought him very close to Mamata Banerjee. Not only within the party, but many people saw Mamata Banerjee during the election campaign.

Priyanka Chaturvedi said that no political party ends. Her time can be wasted. You cannot deny any party. Priyanka Chaturvedi said, "Mamata didi was in Bengal for 15 years. Today she is still a big leader. INDIA is an ally of the block. TMC was formed out of the Congress, if she comes back together, it will benefit further. Congress will give strength to local parties and if there is a direct contest between Congress and BJP, we will fight strongly." If sources are to be believed, Congress has offered to merge TMC. Sources have even claimed that the merger talks have moved forward. Mamata Banerjee has been sent to the Rajya Sabha. This condition has been put before the Congress by her nephew and party MP Abhishek Banerjee.

TMC and Congress Leaders Meet Amid Rebellion, Merger Talks Sparked

Amid rebellion in the Trinamool Congress (TMC), the party's national general secretary Abhishek Banerjee met Rahul Gandhi, the leader of the opposition in the Lok Sabha, for about 90 minutes on Wednesday. The meeting took place at 10 Janpath, where discussions were held on strengthening the opposition INDIA alliance and future strategy. According to sources, the TMC has expressed its desire for a strong alliance, acknowledging Rahul Gandhi's leadership. The meeting has reignited talk of a merger of the TMC and Congress in the political corridors. However, on Wednesday, the Congress has made it clear that no merger proposal should come from the TMC, they are not pressing for it. Just yesterday, Trinamool supremo Mamata Banerjee met Sonia Gandhi. Photos of the two leaders hugging each other went viral on social media. Mamata Banerjee left the Congress in 1998 to form the Trinamool Congress. In 2011, the two parties together defeated the Left Front government in West Bengal, but later the relationship between the two parties deteriorated. Before the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, the BJP-INDIA alliance has again lost its steam in West Bengal.

Pakistani Doctors Protest Over Stagnant Salaries, Demand 100% Increase

Pakistani Doctors Protest Over Stagnant Salaries, Demand 100% Increase

Peshawar: Frustration over years of stagnant wages erupted into a major protest as young doctors established a sit-in camp outside the office of the Provincial Health Secretary. They accused the government of ignoring their demands despite soaring inflation and worsening economic conditions, as reported by The Express Tribune. According to The Express Tribune, doctors from across the province converged on the Provincial Health Secretariat. They launched an indefinite demonstration over the failure of authorities to revise their salaries since 2016. Large convoys of medical professionals arrived from Dera Ismail Khan, Bannu, the Hazara region, and several other districts. This significantly swelled the size of the protest. Each new group of arriving doctors raised slogans and expressed solidarity with colleagues. Therefore, the area outside the Health Secretary’s office transformed into a crowded protest zone. The influx of demonstrators reportedly overwhelmed the parking area, making access difficult and effectively confining senior officials to their offices. The protesting doctors have pledged to continue their sit-in until concrete assurances are provided. To sustain the movement, participants have arranged tents, bedding, and food supplies, signalling their readiness for a prolonged standoff. The atmosphere at the secretariat resembled a political rally, with loud chants and continuous gatherings disrupting routine administrative operations. The intensity of the protest also affected the daily functioning of government employees working within the secretariat premises. In response, police personnel were deployed around the area to prevent any untoward incidents and maintain order. Young Doctors Association Provincial President Isfandyar stated that medical professionals are struggling to survive on salaries that have remained unchanged for nearly a decade. This was cited by The Express Tribune. The association is demanding a 100 per cent increase in salaries. However, Isfandyar stated that even a 50 per cent raise would provide some relief. This is especially true considering the country’s economic challenges and the demanding nature of doctors’ duties.

Chhattisgarh Sees Boost in Development and Security Funding Under Prime Minister's Leadership

Chief Minister Sai said that the visionary, decisive and people-friendly leadership of the Prime Minister has given a new impetus to the development of Chhattisgarh. The central government's policy of giving priority to security and development in Naxal-affected areas has resulted in Chhattisgarh receiving assistance of ₹2, 080.29 crore under the Special Central Assistance (SCA) scheme. Initiatives such as the Special Infrastructure Scheme (SIS), Security Related Expenditure (SRE), availability of modern weapons, jungle warfare training and air support have strengthened the security forces and given the state a decisive edge against Naxalism. The Union Rural Development Ministry has sanctioned 391 roads of 3,222 km and 88 major bridges in Naxal-affected areas at a cost of ₹2,377 crore. These projects have strengthened both development and security in remote areas, including Bastar, with an unprecedented 42% financial boost from the Prime Minister's financial leadership to the Chhattisgarh Autonomous Region.

Iranian President Calls for End to 'Neither War Nor Peace' Policy

Iranian President Calls for End to 'Neither War Nor Peace' Policy

Tehran [Iran], June 10 (ANI): Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian on Wednesday said that Iran must move beyond a prolonged state of “neither war nor peace”, revealing that Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei had allowed negotiations and dialogue to continue as a means of resolving the situation, as per the Iranian news agency ISNA. As reported by ISNA, speaking at the third “Amin Iran” ceremony at Tehran’s Vahdat Hall in memory of the “martyred leader”, Pezeshkian stressed that military confrontation was not in Iran’s interest but insisted the country would not yield to external pressure. “We must get out of the ‘neither war nor peace’ policy. War is definitely not in the country’s interest, but if they attack our land and territory, we will definitely not surrender and will not back down,” he said. The president recounted his regular meetings with the late Supreme Leader during his presidency and said the late Khamenei repeatedly emphasised the need to resolve the impasse between conflict and diplomacy. “The martyred Leader repeatedly stated that the situation of ‘neither war nor peace’ must be resolved,” Pezeshkian said. Describing internal discussions over diplomacy, he said that despite public messaging rejecting negotiations, he argued that dialogue was necessary if the government sought to break the deadlock. “Sometimes the IRIB would broadcast a message from the president that ‘we will not negotiate’. At that time, I would tell his servants what the government should do if it wanted to resolve the issue of ‘neither war nor peace’? If we don’t negotiate, what should we do?” he said. “And it was based on this that the martyred Leader permitted the continuation of negotiations and dialogues,” he added. According to Pezeshkian, Khamenei’s most recent guidance on the matter was clear. “In the latest developments, it was ‘go and resolve the issue’. The Iranian president also highlighted the importance of national unity, arguing that Iran’s adversaries were seeking to exploit domestic divisions. “The enemy has designed and implemented all of its plans based on disrupting internal unity and cohesion,” he said. Pezeshkian argued that military force alone could not compel a nation to surrender, pointing to ongoing regional conflicts. “It is impossible to force a country to surrender with aeroplanes and bombing,” he said. He added, “They were unable to force Gaza, even as small as it is, to surrender after three years, and they will not be able to force Iran to surrender. Iran is definitely not surrenderable.” The president recalled one of his meetings with Khamenei during the recent conflict, saying that after a gathering in the Dokuhe Mountains was targeted, the Supreme Leader delayed his own schedule while waiting for officials to arrive safely. “During the 12-day war, when our meeting in the Dokuhe Mountains was bombed, we were delayed in reaching him, but he waited until near sunset to see us and was worried that something had happened to us,” he said. Pezeshkian also praised the role of Iranian women during what he described as the past 100 days, saying their actions had confounded expectations among Iran’s enemies. “Our sisters have become a thorn in the enemies’ eyes in these 100 days and created scenes that would not have crossed the mind of any political analyst analysing Iran,” he said. He added, “They thought that with their actions they would overthrow our revolution and then implement their sinister intentions in Iran. But all the enemy’s imaginations were shattered by the active and continuous presence of women.” Calling for cooperation across political, social and ethnic lines, Pezeshkian said unity required compromise rather than conformity. “National unity and cohesion means that I will give up some of my demands and you will give up some of yours so that we do not raise differences in any form for the time being,” he said. The president also appealed for public support in addressing the country’s challenges. “We want a dignified, proud and free Iran,” he said. He added, “Empathy and support will save the country from the current crisis. We must be able to save the country from troubles and problems by thinking together and supporting each other.” (ANI) Source The article has been published through a syndicated feed.
