Iran is engaged in a “comprehensive war” with the United States, Israel, and Europe, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian stated on Saturday.
“We are in a state of comprehensive war with the United States, Israel, and Europe,” Pezeshkian said in an interview published on the official website of Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei.
“This war is more dangerous, more complex, and more difficult than the war with Iraq” between 1980 and 1988, he added.
Pezeshkian accused the United States, Israel, and certain European nations of seeking the collapse of Iran. “The situation during the war with Iraq was clear: they fired missiles and we knew where to strike. But today, they surround us from all sides, apply pressure on us, obstruct our trade, and raise public expectations inside society in various fields,” he said.
The remarks follow heightened tensions in the region after a 12-day conflict with Israel in June, during which the U.S. military reportedly struck three major Iranian nuclear facilities – Fordo, Natanz, and Isfahan – using bunker-buster bombs.
