Velayati says sustainable peace grows from a balance of power, not from the hollow promises made by the enemy at the cost of weakening the Resistance.

He maintained that an even greater strategic error is committed by those in the region who have taken comfort in the “mirage of compromise.”
“The new architecture of the balance of power will not be formed on the basis of weakening the heroic Resistance,” he said. “Diplomatic naivety carries a heavy cost, and sustainable peace grows from within a balance of power, not from the mirage of unsupported pledges.”
The criticism was apparently directed at Lebanese President Joseph Aoun, who has made numerous attempts at disarming the Hezbollah resistance movement based on the Israeli promise of halting attacks against his country.
In a CNN interview on Friday, Aoun also criticized Iran, claiming that the Islamic Republic is treating Lebanon as a “bargaining chip” in its talks with Washington.
Earlier on Saturday, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi sharply criticized Aoun’s claims about Tehran’s alleged influence in the Arab country, urging him to focus on Lebanon’s “real foe” rather than Iran.
It came in the wake of a US-brokered ceasefire agreement between the Lebanese government and the Tel Aviv regime.
Despite the so-called ceasefire, Israeli aggression has continued unabated. The regime’s forces persist in bombing villages and towns across southern Lebanon, systematically destroying homes, public facilities, and civilian infrastructure.
