Iran Says Munich Security Conference Became “Circus”

(MENAFN) Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has criticized the Munich Security Conference (MSC), claiming the event has shifted from a serious diplomatic forum to a “circus” that prioritizes “performance over substance.”

This year, senior Iranian officials were reportedly not invited following violent unrest in the country. Instead, the MSC hosted Reza Pahlavi, the exiled son of Iran’s late US-backed shah, who was overthrown in the 1979 Islamic Revolution. Pahlavi used the platform to call on the West to promote regime change in Iran, attend a rally, and give an interview urging the US to bomb his country rather than engage in talks.

“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 Saturday. “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.”

He added: “Europe’s overall trajectory is dire, to say the least.” The bloc is “an empty-handed and peripheral” force that is irrelevant to any serious international talks, particularly regarding the Iranian nuclear program.
