    I congratulate my friend, colleague, and fellow long-time diplomat on his confirmation as the next foreign minister of the Islamic Republic of Iran. Wishing him, the ministry and its officials, and the new administration, all success in international relations.

    After four decades of diplomacy, I move on to full-time teaching and research. I'll continue to pursue and promote global understanding and encourage "positive-sum" dialog—based on empathy, mutual respect and equal footing. Looking forward to continuing the exchange of views.

    Pleased to host Japanese FM Motegi in Tehran on Sunday. In what is probably my last meeting with a counterpart as Iran’s foreign minister, we discussed strengthening bilateral relations, how to resucitate the JCPOA and the catastrophic US-engineered situation in Afghanistan.

    Despite the wishes of a long line of oppressors, the battle against tyranny did not end in Karbala, or in 670 CE. 14 centuries later, resistance to oppression and struggles for freedom continue across the globe. On Hussein's beacon shines on.

    For all their talk of democracy & War on Terror, events in Afghanistan & statements by US & NATO officials prove: They invaded & occupied Afghanistan & elsewhere ONLY to pursue their own interests—but couldn't even achieve that. US/NATO now have clear obligation to compensate.

    Violence & war—like occupation—never solve problems. Iran welcomes announcement by on forming a Coordination Council by Afghan leaders. We hope that it can lead to dialogue & a peaceful transition in Afghanistan. Iran stands ready to continue its peacemaking efforts.

    خشونت و جنگ، همانند اشغال، هیچگاه راه فیصله مشکلات افغانستان نبوده‌ و نخواهد بود. ابتکار برادران در شورای هماهنگی و دیگر رهبران افغانستان می‌تواند زمینه‌ساز گفتگو و انتقال مسالمت‌آمیز به صلح پایدار باشد. جمهوری اسلامی ایران به کوشش خود برای مصالحه در افغانستان ادامه می‌دهد.

    I saw an extremely inappropriate picture today. Need I remind all that Aug. 2021 is neither Aug. 1941 nor Dec. 1943. The Iranian people have shown—including during the JCPOA talks—that their destiny can NEVER be subject to decisions in foreign embassies or by foreign powers.

    Reported "incidents" in the Persian Gulf and broader region appear utterly suspicious. Reaffirming our strong commitment to regional stability & maritime security, Iran stands ready to offer assistance in case of any maritime accidents.

    On Aug 1, a magnificent international conference center was inaugurated in Isfahan—home of a World Heritage Site. The structure is testimony to the determination of Iran to continue the path of constructive engagement, based on equal footing and mutual respect. See you there.

    Türkiye'nin bazı bölgelerinde çıkan yangından çok etkilendim. Türkiye hükümeti ve halkının acılarını paylaşıyoruz ve yanlarında olacağız. Vefat edenlere Allah'tan rahmet, yaralılara acil şifalar dilerim. Hayır dua ve imkanlarımız Türkiye'deki kardeşlerimizin hizmetinde olacaktır

    On July 20—UNSCR 2231's 6th anniversary—I documented 6 years of the West's [non-]implementation of JCPOA, in what may become my last & most important letter to UNSG. It was published online today & soon in print. English: Farsi:

    "Outrageous"=the US denying simple fact that "there IS an agreed deal on the matter of the detainees." Even on how to announce it. Humanitarian swap was agreed with US & UK in Vienna-separate from JCPOA- on release of 10 prisoners on all sides. Iran is ready to proceed TODAY.

    US & UK need to understand this and stop linking a humanitarian exchange—ready to be implemented—with the JCPOA. Keeping such an exchange hostage to political aims achieves neither. TEN PRISONERS on all sides may be released TOMORROW if US&UK fulfill their part of deal. 2/2

    US-affiliated gunmen hatch plots on US soil to assassinate leaders in 🇻🇪 & 🇭🇹 while US government busily covers up its criminal ties by accusing others of a patently ridiculous, childishly conceived kidnapping operation. Put your house in order before throwing bricks at others'.
