00:00Are you seeking nuclear weapons? Are you seeking nuclear weapons? Is nuclear enrichment a non-negotiable for Iran?
00:08What's the status on that front? Because that's exactly what President Trump keeps reiterating.
00:15You do know that the U.S. is doing some propaganda. It is just propaganda.
00:22We are a member of NPT and its regulations is clear.
00:26They exercise the greatest amount of monitoring regarding nuclear activities in Iran.
00:34On a daily basis, they came and monitored, but we did everything and worked within the framework of international principles.
00:43If we were seeking nuclear weapons, we wouldn't have become a member of NPT.
00:49Now, they are bringing about alibis and pretexts to attack our soil.
00:56Our martyred leader, who in terms of leadership and status has a high status, and even in terms of our
01:04religious belief, what he says is the final say, had announced several times that we are not seeking nuclear weapons.
01:12How can we say that, that we are not seeking nuclear weapons?
01:17What kind of substantiated document have they found that they allow themselves to attack us?
01:27It is lies. It is lies.
01:29Then what is the objective here?
01:30Is it to stand for the cause of Israel?
01:34What is the objective in saying that Iran possesses nuclear weapons or is on the way to nuclear weapons?
01:40Because we've heard it for decades from Israel.
01:46You think that Israel is seeking not to be nuclear?
01:54Israel is not a member of NPT, and they have nuclear weapons on a great order.
02:01So, is there any international institution protesting why they have this kind of nuclear weapons?
02:14So, you have witnessed what they are doing in Gaza and Lebanon.
02:20They have killed more than 70,000 innocent people, and they are bombarding these territories on a daily basis.
02:28What kind of human conscience would accept that people should be treated like this?
02:35They have blockaded the roots of water and food and everything.
02:40The whole world is seeing that and understand that.
02:43But why nobody is saying anything to Israel?
02:47This is a kind of savage world in which some are allowed to kill people, children and women,
02:55and bombard hospitals and schools, but still they defend them.
02:59It's a catastrophe.
03:02Regarding the oppressive behavior of Israel and the U.S., we are opposing them.
03:09And we say they should not oppress other people and kill innocent people.
03:13Since we say that we are opposing them, we have to be killed.
03:18So, this is oppression.
03:20And the whole world is just watching this.
03:25And sometimes this shows sympathy.
