Tianshu Zhixin (09903.HK) will be added to the Hang Seng TECH Index constituents, effective Sept 7, 2026.

PEZESHKIAN told a Tehran event on Aug. 22 that members of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council view a previously reached memorandum of understanding with the US as the best outcome given dignity, prudence and national interest; the memo contains no clause indicating Iran surrendered or made concessions and related commitments fall on the other side. He said Iran should, rationally, extricate itself from the current 'neither-war-nor-peace' state because war or that limbo deters investment. He added the late Ali Khamenei had also said Iran must leave the 'neither-war-nor-peace' state, and that supreme leader Mojtaba Khamenei sets national policy and the government will continue to implement those policies.

Iran Foreign Ministry spokesman BAGHAEI said Tehran will use all bilateral capacities to counter US economic sanctions, calling Washington’s approach a repeated, failed policy. He said the sanctions’ burdens fall on ordinary people and accused the US of using sanctions and threats to coerce other countries into limiting trade, violating free-trade and sovereignty principles. BAGHAEI added US overreach and illegal actions have prompted protests even from close US allies.
