Iran Demonstrates Resolute Position: Ready for Protracted Conflict to Defend Strait Sovereignty
A high-ranking Iranian military advisor recently issued a firm declaration, stating unequivocally that Iran will not compromise under any maritime blockade. He emphasized that Iran will steadfastly maintain its sovereignty and control over the Hormuz Strait until its national rights are fully secured.
Fully Prepared for Long-Term Conflict, US Capacity Questioned
Contrary to external speculation, Iran has made comprehensive preparations for a potential prolonged conflict. The advisor contrasted the situations, noting that while the United States attempts to assume a so-called "police" role in the Hormuz Strait region, it actually lacks the capability and willingness to sustain a protracted war, even harboring fear of continuous conflict.
- Iran's stance: No compromise, holding the Strait until rights are guaranteed.
- Strategic preparation: Complete deployment for coping with a protracted war.
- Assessment of adversary: US military strength is insufficient for long-term confrontation.
This statement clearly outlines Iran's strategic resolve and assessment in the current regional situation, demonstrating its unwavering posture to defend core interests through long-term confrontation.
