Seyed Mohammad Marandi said the current confrontation marks a turning point in the regional balance of power, in an interview for Al Mayadeen, arguing that #Iran will no longer accept a status quo in which the United States and "Israel" can threaten it from military bases across the region. According to Marandi, Tehran aims to push the war until Washington and its Western allies recognize that attacking Iran is no longer an option. He also argues that the war could force broader regional changes, including a challenge to #Gulf states hosting #US bases and a shift in power favoring the Axis of Resistance.

Speaking to Al Mayadeen, Professor Mohammad Marandi argued that Iran's decision to shut the Strait of Hormuz has placed US President Donald Trump before a defining choice. "Is he going to choose the United States? Or is he going to choose the Israeli regime?" Marandi asked, arguing that Trump now has "no third choice" between protecting the US economy or forcing "Israel" to halt its aggression and ceasefire violations in Lebanon. He said Iran briefly reopened the Strait to demonstrate that it sought an end to the war and expected the US to honor its commitments, but after "they didn't act," Tehran closed it again. Marandi stressed that Iran "is dead serious," insisting it will not compromise until the Israeli occupation ends its war, withdraws from Lebanon, and fully implements the agreement, warning that "Iran has even implied that if this is not enough; they are willing to go further... It will strike 'Israel'." Seyed Mohammad Marandi #Iran #WarOnIran #UnitedStates #Lebanon #AlMayadeen

In an interview for #AlMayadeen, Professor Mohammad Marandi clarified that the #UnitedStates "is being utterly ignorant in its confrontation with the Islamic Republic of Iran and the axis of resistance." He explained that #Iran and the Axis of Resistance have not yet begun escalation and did not initiate the war, but have been trying to prevent the region from being destroyed. Gulf states in the region, Marandi says, miscalculated by underestimating the Axis of Resistance and overestimating the #US, and warned them that their only solution is to back down and force the United States to leave. #IranWar #WestAsia Seyed Mohammad Marandi

In an interview with Al Mayadeen, Professor Mohammad Marandi described the war on Iran as a major miscalculation by the United States, arguing that Iran sees no benefit in a ceasefire at this stage. According to Marandi, Tehran believes that only sustained pressure will deter future attacks, warning that a ceasefire would give Washington and its allies time to regroup and strike again. Marandi also highlighted the broader consequences of the conflict, including rising energy prices and increasing international pressure on Washington.

In an interview for #AlMayadeen, Professor Mohammad Marandi discusses the economic impact of the US-Israeli war launched against #Iran on the United States and its allies. According to Professor Marandi, while Iran has been making money over the past three months since the US began building up its forces, the "#US proxies in the region were losing money." He notes that Iran has "more than enough money right now for the next few months." Meanwhile, as oil prices rise, US consumers are affected like everyone else, while producers in the US benefit, ordinary people do not. Professor Marandi added that LNG also affects US allies "disproportionately more than anyone else," citing #Japan, Korea, and European countries as examples. Seyed Mohammad Marandi

Speaking to Al Mayadeen, Professor Mohammad Marandi asserted that Iran never expected the United States to implement the memorandum of understanding, stressing that the "Iranians have no trust in the #Trump regime." He also added that "Iran knew that the #UnitedStates would drag its feet as much as possible," arguing that it had agreed to electronic signatures without a formal ceremony because of that distrust, adding that Iran's leverage lies in its control of the Strait of Hormuz. Marandi further asserted that "#Iran won the war," and warned that "Iran will continue to use that leverage" until the US fulfills its commitments, saying the future of the agreement depends on whether the US ultimately honors its side of the deal. As for the signed framework agreement between the Lebanese authorities and the Israeli occupation, Professor Marandi said it is an attempt by Washington to violate the US-Iran MoU and an attempt by the US to "undermine the agreement".

Marandi argued that although logic suggests Donald Trump may avoid launching a war before his sensitive trip to China, the US president remains “unpredictable.” He also stressed that Washington views Iran as the main obstacle preventing total US-Israeli domination over West Asia and North Africa, saying the Islamic Republic is the only force standing in the way of full regional hegemony. Marandi added that Iran will not “appease” the United States during negotiations and insisted Tehran’s current priority remains a ceasefire and regional peace before discussing the nuclear file.
