# Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian says his country will not stop its nuclear activity nor give up its right to pursue a civilian nuclear programme. In a phone call with French President Emmanuel Macron, Pezeshkian is reported to have said Iran was ready to provide guarantees to build confidence in Iran’s nuclear activities. Still, its nuclear programme could not be taken away by threats or war. The country’s official IRNA news agency says Pezeshkian told Macron that Iran’s response to continuing Israeli attacks would be more devastating.
