Iran's retaliatory military strikes against US bases in the region have fundamentally transformed the regional security structure, according to Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi. The strikes were a response to the US-Israeli-imposed war, which started in late February, and Iran's refusal to accept the 'unlawful and unreasonable' demands for zero enrichment.
The Iranian foreign minister emphasized that regional countries did not anticipate that Iran would strike targets across the region in a way that they could not effectively respond. This was a major development that occurred and transformed the region's security structure, he added.
Araghchi noted that Iran was 'not caught off guard at all' by the US-Israeli aggression and had been prepared for all possible scenarios. He stated that negotiations with the United States before the war centered around the latter's persistent demand for 'zero enrichment,' with Washington pressing Tehran to comply or face military action.
The top Iranian diplomat stated that Iranian officials finally decided to engage in negotiations with the US 'so that no one could later say, 'If you had negotiated, war would not have occurred.'
Key points
- Iran's retaliatory military strikes against US bases have transformed the regional security structure.
- The strikes were a response to the US-Israeli-imposed war and Iran's refusal to accept demands for zero enrichment.
- Iran was 'not caught off guard at all' by the US-Israeli aggression and had been prepared for all possible scenarios.
- Negotiations with the United States before the war centered around the latter's persistent demand for 'zero enrichment'.
If this development plays out positively, it could lead to a more stable and secure region. Iran's military strikes have shown that it will not back down in the face of aggression, and this could deter other countries from attacking it in the future.
However, there are also risks that this development could lead to further conflict. The US and its allies may try to retaliate against Iran, which could lead to a wider war. Additionally, the region is already unstable, and this development could make it even more so.
