Recently, Iranian’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said that the country’s new government would seek to “manage tensions” with the United States to help reduce pressure and neutralize crippling sanctions.
- He also expresses Tehran’s unwavering support “under any circumstances” for the so-called “axis of resistance.”
- Axis of Resistance is a network of Iran-aligned terror groups and militias across the Middle East opposed to Israel.
- The Axis includes not only Hamas, the Palestinian group that ignited the war by attacking Israel on Oct. 7, but also: the Hezbollah movement in Lebanon; the Houthi movement in Yemen; various Shi’ite armed groups in Iraq; and Syria.
