Iran responds to Trump's vulgarity with action: Araghchi

In a post on his X account on Wednesday evening, Iranian Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi responded to US President Donald Trump's rhetoric against Iran, which was uttered during a NATO summit in Turkey earlier that day. Araghchi wrote, "Addressing the Civilized and Courageous Nation of Iran with derogatory language does not diminish its Greatness." He further stated, "Iranians are known for their civility, culture, and strong moral values. We do not answer vulgarity with vulgarity, but with action: fearlessly and with great valor." The remarks came after Trump's comments at the NATO summit, where he reportedly used harsh language against Iran. Araghchi's statement underscores Iran's stance of responding to provocations with measured and decisive action rather than engaging in verbal exchanges. According to Mehr News, the Iranian foreign minister's post reaffirms the country's commitment to dignity and moral values in international discourse.
