Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi ridiculed the Munich Security Conference, after it withdrew its invitation for Iranian officials to speak at the conference, but allowed in Reza Pahlavi, the exiled son of the deposed Shah.
“Sad to see the usually serious Munich Security Conference turned into the ‘Munich Circus’ when it comes to Iran,” Araghchi said in a series of posts on X on Feb. 14. “The EU appears confused, rooted in an inability to understand what is happening inside Iran.… An aimless EU has lost all geopolitical weight in our region.”
