Iran's President Masoud Pezeshkian in a message to American people said both confrontation and engagement between Iran and the US are accessible, adding that Iran will endure any aggression by the US.
"Today, the world stands at crossroads. Continuing along the path of confrontation is more costly and futile than ever before.
"The choice between confrontation and engagement is both real and consequential; its outcome will shape the future for generations to come," said Pezeshkian.
"Throughout its millennia of proud history, Iran has outlasted many aggressors. All that remains of them are tarnished names in history, while Iran endures - resilient, dignified, and proud."
Pezeshkian did not mention a ceasefire offer last week by President Trump, though he accused Israel of dragging the US into a war against Iran.
"Is it not also the case that America has entered this aggression as a proxy for Israel, influenced and manipulated by that regime?" asked Pezeshkian.

US President Donald Trump Wednesday said China, Japan and South Korea should be involved in opening Strait of Hormuz.
The president has previously directed much of his anger at NATO allies for their reluctance to get involved in securing the Strait of Hormuz until the US and Israel finish prosecuting their war against Iran.
In his remarks at the private Easter lunch he hosted at the White House on Wednesday, Trump also expressed frustration with some Asian countries that are more reliant on Gulf oil than the US.
"Let South Korea, you know, we only have 45,000 soldiers in harm's way over there, right next to a nuclear force - let South Korea do it," Trump said. "Let Japan do it. They get 90 per cent of their oil from the strait. Let China do it."
Trump also derided NATO as 'very bad allies' and 'paper tiger' during the private lunch, ahead of his address.
"NATO treated us very badly, and you have to remember it because they'll be treating us badly again if we ever need them," Trump

Mahindra & Mahindra on Friday said it will increase the prices of its non-electric SUVs and commercial vehicles by up to 2.5 per cent from April 6.
The company attributed the latest price hike to a combination of cost escalations.
"Mahindra & Mahindra announces an increase in prices of up to 2.5 per cent for its ICE (powered) SUV and CV range, with an average hike of 1.6 per cent across the portfolio," the company said in a statement.
This price increase is effective from April 6, it said.
For the recently introduced XUV7XO, the price hike is expected to come into effect after the delivery to the first 40,000 price-protected bookings, the company said.
Various auto makers including Tata Motors, JSW MG Motor India, BMW, Audi India and Mercedes-Benz have already increased their vehicle prices from April 1 on account of rising input costs.
