According to Khabaronline, The spokesperson added, "This move highlights a sad reality: those who constantly speak about dialogue, freedom of expression, and interaction are unable to tolerate hearing the statements of a foreign minister from another country."
He also pointed out that the cancellation of Araghchi’s invitation does more than just prevent Iran from participating in such events; it undermines the credibility of these forums. According to him, this action shows that international conferences remain influenced by political pressures from governments and reveals how little tolerance there is for hearing different viewpoints.
The Munich Security Conference (MSC) started in 1963 and quickly became one of the most important informal gatherings for discussing international security issues. Originally launched during the Cold War, the conference has long served as a platform for high-level discussions among policymakers and experts on global military and security concerns.
The main goal of the conference is to hold ongoing, informal dialogues to peacefully resolve conflicts and propose diplomatic initiatives. Over the years, it has become an annual meeting point for over 450 prominent leaders and thinkers from around the world, where critical security issues are debated.
This year, the Munich Security Conference will be held from February 13 to 15 in Germany. The German Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced that, due to the recent protests and the deaths of thousands during the demonstrations, it will not support the participation of Iranian officials in this year’s event.
