Mar 16, 2026, 09:56 GMT+0

Iran has not asked for a ceasefire and will continue its resistance in the current conflict, Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said on Monday.

Araghchi told reporters that Iran had endured "difficult but proud days" and would keep resisting without hesitation.

"We have not sent any message and we have not requested a ceasefire," Araghchi said, adding that the war should end in a way that prevents it from happening again.
