Iran has warned neighboring countries against allowing their territory or facilities to be used by the United States or Israel for actions against Tehran. Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei said regional states should respect the principle of good neighborliness as tensions remain high.
Baghaei said Iran had raised concerns with countries in the region, particularly those whose facilities were used during the recent conflict. He warned that any future use of neighboring territory for attacks on Iran could trigger what he described as a different response from Tehran.
The spokesman also rejected U.S. claims about Iran’s diplomatic delegation leaving New York after the United Nations General Assembly. Baghaei dismissed reports of expulsions, saying the delegation’s travel arrangements had largely been planned in advance.
At the same time, Tehran says diplomacy remains possible, but it is currently focused on security and conditions surrounding the Strait of Hormuz.
Meanwhile, debate inside Iran over its future participation in the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty is gaining attention.
For now, Iranian officials continue to present both diplomacy and military preparedness as options, while urging neighboring states to avoid actions that Tehran says could further increase regional tensions.
