Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian has declared that Iran is engaged in a full-scale conflict with the United States, Israel, and Europe.
Speaking in an interview published on the website of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Pezeshkian emphasized that the current confrontation is more intense than Iran’s war with Iraq in the 1980s, which resulted in over one million casualties on both sides.
“We are at full-scale war with the US, Israel, and Europe; they do not want our state to remain stable,” Pezeshkian stated, underscoring that the Western campaign against Iran is “more complex and difficult” than past conflicts.
His statements come just two days before a scheduled meeting between the US President and Israeli Prime Minister, where Iran is expected to be a central topic of discussion. Analysts suggest that these remarks may escalate regional tensions and influence ongoing diplomatic negotiations regarding Iran’s nuclear and regional policies.
