In a bold televised address on Saturday, March 7, 2026, President Masoud Pezeshkian declared that Iran will never give in to demands for "unconditional surrender" from the United States and Israel.
As the regional conflict enters its second week, Pezeshkian insisted that the Iranian people will continue to resist external military pressure.
Pezeshkian specifically responded to President Donald Trump’s demand for total submission, calling it an impossible "dream" that Iran's enemies will never see realized.
In a rare move, the President personally apologized to neighboring Gulf nations (like the UAE and Saudi Arabia) that were hit by Iranian missiles, claiming those strikes were not intentional.
Iran’s interim leadership council has now revoked the "fire at will" authority of its military units, promising no more strikes on neighbors unless an attack on Iran comes directly from their land.
Pezeshkian continues to serve as a key member of the three-man council managing the country following the death of Ali Khamenei on February 28.
