Iran's Acting Foreign Minister Ali Bagheri Kani on Saturday issued a resolute stance as he affirmed Iran's commitment to using its power to deter "Israel" in times of regional destabilization.

His remarks come in light of recent Israeli aggressions, particularly the attack on the Iranian consulate in Damascus earlier this year.

In an interview with CNN Turk, Bagheri Kani  said: "The Zionists' targeting and attack on the Iranian embassy in Damascus has forced Iran to effectively and wisely use its power components to protect the security and stability of the region."

"I think the Zionists know very well that when the stability and security of the region is threatened and they try to destabilize the region, Iran will effectively and wisely use its might to contain them and put them in their place," Bagheri Kani added.

Regarding the escalating tensions between Russia and the West, Bagheri Kani advocated for dialogue as the preferred approach to resolve conflicts.

He rejected the notion of military confrontation, stating, "We do not see a war as a solution to the problem. Our advice to both sides is to use dialogue in a political context."

Bagheri Kani also urged Islamic countries to halt all political and economic cooperation with "Israel," instead advocating for a comprehensive boycott of Israeli imports and exports.

Addressing concerns about Iran's nuclear program, Bagheri Kani reiterated that Iran conducts its nuclear activities in strict accordance with the International Atomic Energy Agency's requirements and international treaties.

He dismissed allegations of nuclear escalation, asserting, "Iran's nuclear program and activities are fully legal and under the control of the International Atomic Energy Agency," Bagheri Kani said in an interview with the CNN Turk broadcaster.

Iran vows response if nuclear watchdog approves censure

Iran recently vowed to respond if the UN nuclear watchdog approves a new censure resolution proposed by three European governments, Iranian media reported.

"In case of issuing a resolution against Iran in the board of governors and political pressure from the parties, Iran will respond according to the announcement it made to them," the Iranian Fars news agency quoted Mohammad Eslami, the chief of the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI), as saying.

Britain, France, and Germany submitted a draft resolution to the International Atomic Energy Agency's board on Monday, condemning what they called Iran's failure to fully cooperate with the watchdog and demanding more accountability.

At the last IAEA board meeting in March, European powers shelved their plans to pressure Iran due to a lack of US support amid rising tensions in West Asia, including the ongoing Israeli war on Gaza and the Iranian retaliation to the Israeli strike that targeted the country's consulate in Syria.
