Translated paragraph context
Iranian Foreign Minister Araghchi said on November 10 that the United States should have recognized earlier that it had not achieved, and could not achieve, any of its goals in the war against Iran. The war would end neither through military means nor through tougher sanctions. The only solution was diplomacy and fulfillment of the demands and conditions put forward by Iran. On the same day, U.S. Secretary of State Rubio said that U.S. economic sanctions and blockade measures had been “very effective,” making large-scale combat operations in Iran unnecessary.Original Chinese quote
伊朗外长阿拉格齐10日表示，美国本应更早认识到在对伊朗的战争中没有实现，也不可能实现任何目标。战争既不会通过军事手段结束，也不会通过加强制裁结束。唯一的解决办法是采取外交手段，并履行伊朗提出的要求和条件。
