Watch: What messages did the US and Iran send about the war?
President Masoud Pezeshkian made an unprecedented visit to New York City for the United Nations General Assembly this week. In a speech to leaders, he said that Iran will never "bend the knee" after almost seven months of war with the US and Israel, but is ready for a diplomatic solution to the conflict.
This is said to be the first time a President of a country actively at war with the US has stepped foot in New York to address this Assembly.
BBC's Tom Bateman breaks down Masoud Pezeshkian's rare visit and how his words compare to President Donald Trump's.
