BAKU, Azerbaijan, January 7. Iran's internal affairs are of no concern to anyone except its citizens, Foreign Minister Seyyed Abbas Araghchi told reporters after a meeting of the Cabinet of Ministers in Tehran today, Trend reports.
According to him, Iran's internal issues can be resolved between the government and citizens. If there are any objections and issues, they will be resolved, and there is great hope that they will be resolved.
The minister noted that no foreign state has any involvement in Iran's internal issues.
"Iran is making great efforts to develop economic cooperation and trade relations with neighboring countries. The Iranian Foreign Ministry is trying to identify the potentials of the provinces within the framework of provincial diplomacy and align them with the potentials of neighboring countries. Currently, all provinces of Iran are interested in forming cooperation in this way.
In the current situation, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is trying to take advantage of the very good economic potentials of neighboring countries in order to help the country's economy. It is the ministry's unforgettable duty to strive for the lifting of sanctions imposed against the country," he pointed out.
The protests have been taking place in Iran since late December in protest of the sharp depreciation of the Iranian rial against foreign currencies, inflation, and the financial crisis.
