dijlahpoint - Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian stated in a press interview on Saturday, September 12, 2026, that the United States is attempting to sow division and discord between Iran and the Arab states.

Pezeshkian said in the interview that the United States is now trying to push Arab states to turn against Iran, explaining that Tehran has no disputes with Arab countries except for their hosting of American bases used to target Iran.

He added that the United States is employing a divide-and-rule policy to plant discord between Iran and Arab states and push them into conflict and infighting, while it exploits their oil and resources.

It is noteworthy that the Iranian president's remarks came following accusations against Iran of being behind the attack on the main Saudi oil pipeline used to bypass the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, which was launched from Iraqi territory.
