Iran's president says immediate cessation of US-Israeli aggression needed to end war
Iran's president urged BRICS to independently halt US-Israeli aggression, proposed a regional security framework, and emphasized protecting navigation and shipping lanes, Iran's embassy said.
- On Saturday, March 21, 2026, Masoud Pezeshkian, President of the Islamic Republic of Iran, said there must be an 'immediate cessation' of 'what he described as U.S.-Israeli aggression' to end the war, Iran's Embassy in India posted on X.
- Seeking regional solutions, Pezeshkian told Mr. Modi there should be guarantees to prevent recurrence and proposed a West Asian security framework without foreign interference.
- Tehran has started permitting India-flagged vessels through the Strait of Hormuz on a case-by-case basis, emphasizing safeguarding freedom of navigation and secure shipping lanes.
- India, as BRICS chair, must balance member positions, with analysts saying a consensus statement appears unlikely at this stage, given differing views among members.
- Tehran appealed directly to BRICS to act, urging the 11-member bloc, chaired by India, to condemn 'military aggression', though experts say its expanded membership limits unified responses.
