Rohani details efforts to prevent conflict with Washington
Statements by Hassan Rouhani spoke of key historical moments when Iran sought to avoid war with the United States, emphasizing that the previous leadership under the Supreme Leader had a clear strategy for crisis management and preventing military confrontation. He pointed out that Iran never sought war at any time, but it adopted firm stances against those threatening its security. Rouhani clarified that negotiating and halting disputes based on legal rights were among strategic options. He recounted several examples, such as avoiding clashes with U.S. forces during the Gulf War, halting an internal conflict in 1998, resolving the 1999 spy plane crisis, and preventing a potential war in 2003 through negotiations with Europe and directives from the Supreme Leader—achievements that were ultimately successful. Rouhani also confirmed that tensions peaked in 2013 and 2019, during which secret efforts and negotiations took place to avoid war. He noted that Supreme Leader Khamenei was always opposed to war, working to curb aggression and employing diplomacy to protect the country. This reflects Iran’s strategic approach to crisis management: preventing military confrontation with the West.
