We do not know where the negotiations between Washington and Tehran will lead, but what is certain is that the enemies are determined to neutralize the Islamic Republic completely. Will they achieve their aim? I do not think so, because as long as there is a Zionist occupation, no party will truly enjoy stability and peace.
Iran’s regional security is constantly threatened by the Zionists and by the American and Western military bases in the Persian Gulf. Moreover, the U.S. administration’s insistence on depriving Iran of its missile industry is something that no one in Iran—whether the state or the opposition—will accept. And Iran is not Venezuela: any destabilization there will inevitably spill over onto neighboring countries, which lack sufficient preparedness to confront new risks.
Those who bet on the victory of the Iranian opposition forget that it is fragmented, and that change at any cost would be more than costly. Containing Iran is not as easy as the Americans and the Zionists imagine. Accordingly, it is very difficult for negotiations to resolve accumulated crises. Nor can one rely on the continuity of American commitment to agreements, as the American negotiator is known for tearing up treaties with ease and resorting to military force.
Iran today stands at a crossroads, but in all circumstances it will not retreat from the constants of its national security.
