Iran's Abdul Majid Hakeem Ilahi says conversation between Indian and Iranian leadership 'successful'
India and Iran leaders held successful talks on West Asia's security. Iran's representative stated Iran did not start the war but will defend its land. Indian leaders, including the External Affairs Minister and Prime Minister, have engaged in multiple conversations with Iranian counterparts. Discussions focused on regional stability, shipping safety, and energy security.
New Delhi: Abdul Majid Hakeem Ilahi, the Representative of Iran's Supreme Leader in India, said that the Indian and Iranian leadership held a "good and successful" conversation amid the developing security situation in West Asia.
Speaking to about the conflict, he underlined that Iran, while it did not start the war, will sacrifice everything it has for their "dignity and land".
Ilahi on Friday said, "Iran did not initiate this war. Iran was engaged in negotiations with the United States and was also pursuing diplomatic efforts. Both delegations were very happy with the progress in negotiation. But it is not clear what happened. Suddenly, the United States, along with the Zionist regime, attacked Iran, and they targeted a lot of civilians in Iran. We hope that we will win in this war, and will sacrifice whatever we have for our dignity and our land."

When asked about the conversation between the Indian and Iranian leadership, Ilahi said that it was successful.
"This conversation was very good, successful, and I am sure there are a lot of achievements based on that conversation. We sent a lot of reports to Iran that all Indian brothers and sisters, regardless of religion, are supporting Iran, are supporting justice, because this land (India) is the land of justice, wisdom, culture and civilisation. They are students of Gandhi, and Gandhi was just. I'm sure that based on our relationship, cooperation, we will have a lot of achievements and our relationship will be deeper," he added.
This comes after External Affairs Minister (EAM) S Jaishankar held another conversation with his Iranian counterpart Seyed Abbas Araghchi and discussed bilateral matters and BRICS-related issues.
