flag Iranian President Pezeshkian faces backlash for apologizing on TV after military strikes triggered by U.S. and Israeli attacks.

flag Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian faces intense backlash from hardline officials and media after apologizing in a televised address for recent military actions against neighboring countries. flag The apology, made following U.S. and Israeli strikes that killed top Iranian commanders and triggered chaotic retaliatory attacks, was condemned as weak and humiliating by conservative lawmakers and outlets, who accused Pezeshkian of undermining national dignity and promoting "begging diplomacy." flag Critics, including MPs Jalal Rashidi Koochi and Mohammad Mannan Raeesi, argued Iran had not erred and called for the president to apologize to the Iranian people instead. flag The remarks highlight deepening rifts within Iran’s leadership over foreign policy, with reformists pushing for de-escalation and hardliners demanding a more assertive stance amid ongoing regional tensions.
