Iran has been always open to diplomacy, and I think we have a very good record of that.
Contrary to Americans, that their record is very bad and very negative. You know, this is
the 2nd time that we negotiated with Americans and they decided to attack us right in the
middle of negotiation. What we are doing is, in fact, An act of self-defense and
retaliation to the American aggression against us. We are not attacking our brothers in the,
you know, in the Persian Gulf. We are not attacking our neighbors, but we are attacking
American targets, and this is obvious, you know, the Americans, the United States military
is targeting us, is attacking us, and we have no way but to defend ourselves.
