The latest joint X Space hosted by Tehran Times and Sputnik featured former Pentagon analyst Karen Kwiatkowski in a wide-ranging discussion on the rapidly changing geopolitical landscape.
TEHRAN — Iran’s fresh retaliatory actions against US warships and military infrastructure have underscored Tehran’s unwavering position that its armed forces will never leave aggression unanswered. The Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) has deployed heavy ballistic capability, tactical countermeasures, and air defense systems to neutralize Washington’s hostile footprint across the Persian Gulf, the Strait of Hormuz, and broader West Asia airspace.
TEHRAN — Iran’s armed forces have successfully confronted the United States and Israel through an asymmetric approach to warfare, Major General Ali Abdollahi, Chief of Staff of the Iranian Armed Forces, said on Sunday.
TEHRAN — Iran’s deterrence capabilities have significantly strengthened following the country’s recent military confrontations with the United States and Israel, Rear Admiral Habibollah Sayyari, deputy chief of Iran’s Army for Coordination Affairs, said.
TEHRAN — Iran will respond to any new aggression against its national interests and security with a faster, heavier, and more painful response, Parliament Speaker Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf said on Sunday, warning that the era of “proportionate responses” had come to an end.
TEHRAN — There are moments when the machinery of war strips away every pretense and leaves only the sound of a mother’s scream.
TEHRAN — Washington's great miscalculation in attacking Iran may have been that it weighed the cost of war too heavily on the military battlefield and too little on America's economic balance sheet.
TEHRAN — Iran’s Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baqaei has warned Americans against allowing their children to become what he called “cannon fodder” in a war against Iran, after an opinion article in The Jerusalem Post proposed using debt relief as an incentive to recruit young Americans for a potential ground offensive.
Sazandegi assessed China’s refusal to join the G20 statement. The meeting was supposed to focus mainly on economic issues, but disagreements over the Strait of Hormuz once again exposed geopolitical rifts among major powers. The G20 countries emphasized the need for safe and free navigation in the Strait of Hormuz, but China declined to endorse the position.
TEHRAN — Iran is facing a multifaceted “hybrid war” involving military, economic, media and cultural pressure, Tehran’s interim Friday prayer leader, Ayatollah Ahmad Khatami, said on Friday, predicting that efforts to isolate the country economically would ultimately fail.
