Zarif: Having military power is more important than using it
The former Iranian Foreign Minister spoke about the necessity of using diplomacy and dialogue to prevent the expansion of war in the region. He stated that it is certainly clear to everyone that as long as diplomacy has the ability to resolve issues, which of course must be backed by national power, having military power is more important than using it.
What allows diplomacy to succeed is having the power to use diplomatic tools.
Our former Foreign Minister expressed his hopes regarding recent regional developments, stating that he hopes with wisdom, the situation can be resolved without escalating, which would certainly benefit Israel and harm the people of Gaza.
