"At the moment, at least, there does not seem to be an immediate threat of war between the US and Iran. I spoke with Iranian Foreign Minister Araghchi. The parties are showing a will to continue negotiations."
During the previous 12-day war, we received a phone call one night from Marco Rubio. He said, 'Tell the Iranians. Anything could happen in the next few hours.'
The priority is to find a solution regarding nuclear issues. If a solution is found for the nuclear issue, other problems will be resolved more easily.
I do not foresee a regime change in Iran. This is not possible. The regime in Iran cannot be toppled by airstrikes."
