Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian released a letter addressed to “the people of the United States of America” on Wednesday, hours before President Trump is scheduled to address the nation about the U.S. military’s ongoing operations against Iran.
“Today, the world stands at a crossroads,” Pezeshkian wrote in a letter posted on the social platform X.
“Continuing along the path of confrontation is more costly and futile than ever before,” the Iranian official continued. “The choice between confrontation and engagement is both real and consequential; its outcome will shape the future for generations to come.”
The conflict has now stretched into a fifth week, after the U.S. and Israel launched joint strikes on Iran on Feb. 28 amid nuclear deal negotiations. The strikes have taken out several key Iranian leaders, including former Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
