Iran FM criticizes US threats to ships

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi criticized the United States during a phone call with his Pakistani counterpart, Ishaq Dar. Araghchi stated that recent US threats against Iranian vessels demonstrate that Washington is not serious about finding a resolution to the ongoing crisis in the Persian Gulf. The call highlights Iran's diplomatic efforts to frame the US as an obstacle to de-escalation. The conversation comes amid heightened regional tensions following US seizures of Iranian ships and a spike in oil prices.
