Iran warned on Sunday that any new war with the United States could be longer than the previous one, asserting that U.S. President Donald Trump would not be the one to decide when it ends.
Iranian Army spokesperson Mohammad Akbari Nia said, “Any future war could last longer than the previous one, and the U.S. president will not be in a position to dictate its timing or the terms of its conclusion,” according to Iranian state television.
The war in the Middle East began on February 28 with U.S.-Israeli strikes on Iran, which resulted in the death of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and several senior military commanders.
For his part, Iranian Revolutionary Guard spokesperson Hossein Mobahi stated that “in any conflict with America, there will be no geographical constraints, as targets have been widely designated to inflict losses on the enemy,” according to the same source.
These remarks came a day after Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei issued a statement, attributed to him and published on his Telegram channel on Saturday, warning the United States and Israel against launching new attacks and directing a response “without geographical constraints” to U.S. and Israeli threats, following comments made by U.S. President Donald Trump.
On Saturday, Trump said that the United States had destroyed a significant portion of Iran’s nuclear capabilities, but “we still have one or two sites to deal with,” adding, “We can accomplish that in 10 minutes.”
