In a statement responding to Trump’s rhetoric, the General Staff of the Armed Forces and the Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters declared: The hostile remarks and repeated threats made by the US President against Iran—which have involved exploiting the United Nations podium to legitimize aggression, insecurity, and global banditry—serve merely as a tool for domestic propaganda rather than being grounded in realities on the ground.
Such rhetoric reflects the strategic impasse the US faces in its aggression against the Iranian nation.
Given the state of exhaustion within the US military, the repetition of baseless claims and threats signals not strength, but rather strategic desperation.
Islamic Iran has consistently served as an anchor of security in the region—particularly for free and international trade—whereas the US, through its illegitimate, illegal, and aggressive presence in West Asia, acts as a source of threat, insecurity, and instability; it has effectively held the global economy hostage in a bid to compensate for successive failures in its aggressive actions against Iran and its acts of maritime banditry.
The US President’s rhetoric alters neither the balance of power nor the strategic calculus; nor will it ever reverse the country’s diminished standing in the new world order or undo the humiliating defeats the US has suffered in its war against Iran and the Resistance Front. The response of the capable and powerful armed forces of Islamic Iran—drawing upon the experiences of the eight-year Sacred Defense and subsequent imposed conflicts—to the nonsensical rhetoric and threats from the murderer of the Ummah’s martyred Imam, the innocent and oppressed schoolchildren of Minab and Lamerd, and the nation’s other exalted martyrs, is a state of full readiness to deliver even more severe, crushing, and unpredictable blows against the aggressors and the leaders of the United States and the Zionist regime.
God willing, the esteemed President of the Islamic Republic of Iran will convey the message of the brave nation and heroic armed forces, as well as the might of a strong and invincible Iran, to the world at the United Nations General Assembly.
