Iran-US tensions rise as Tehran rejects pressure and asserts military strength
Iran missile stockpile and war readiness Iran missile stockpile has become a major focus as tensions with the United States intensify, with Tehran claiming it can sustain several years of war using its missile and drone reserves. A senior Iranian lawmaker said the country is fully prepared for prolonged conflict while continuing negotiations with Washington under the direction of its top leadership. The statement highlights both Iran’s military confidence and its refusal to yield under pressure. Alaeddin Boroujerdi, a senior member of Iran’s parliament, said the country’s defense capacity remains strong and capable of long-term engagement. He emphasized that Iran’s missile and drone arsenal is sufficient to maintain sustained operations if required. He made it clear that negotiations with the United States are not a sign of weakness but part of a calculated strategy directed by the Supreme Leader. According to him, experienced leadership is handling the talks, ensuring that national interests are protected at all times. Boroujerdi stressed that Iran does not view the negotiating table as a place for surrender. He stated that discussions would not lead to compromise or humiliation, reinforcing Tehran’s firm diplomatic stance. His comments come at a time of rising Iran-US tensions, particularly following statements by Donald Trump, which he dismissed as ineffective. He also pointed out that a recently extended ceasefire period has not resulted in any significant actions from the opposing side. The Iranian lawmaker also criticized the US-led maritime blockade, describing it as lacking global legitimacy. He noted that no major European or NATO countries have joined the effort, suggesting limited international support for Washington’s position. This, he argued, weakens the overall impact of the blockade. Strategically, Iran continues to emphasize its control over the Strait of Hormuz, a crucial global oil route. Officials maintain that Iran will never lose control over this vital waterway, underlining its importance in the broader geopolitical landscape. The statement reinforces Tehran’s confidence in its regional influence and defense strategy. Overall, Iran’s position reflects a dual approach of negotiation and strength. While talks with the United States continue, Tehran is signaling that it is fully prepared for extended conflict if necessary, maintaining both diplomatic engagement and military readiness.

West Asia tensions rise as US envoys head to Pakistan for Iran talks
The US Iran conflict has entered a critical phase as Iran’s Defence Ministry claimed that the United States is seeking a “face-saving” way to exit the war, even as Washington sends a delegation to Pakistan for peace talks. The statement highlights growing diplomatic activity alongside rising military tensions in West Asia, with Pakistan emerging as a key mediator in the crisis. According to Iranian media reports, a defence ministry spokesperson said that Iran’s military strength has become dominant in the region, forcing the United States to look for a way out of what it described as a prolonged and difficult conflict. The remarks come at a time when US envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner are heading to Pakistan for discussions that the White House said would include talks with Iranian representatives. However, Iran has publicly denied plans for direct negotiations with the United States. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi arrived in Islamabad for an official visit and is scheduled to meet senior Pakistani officials. Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baqaei clarified that the visit is focused on consultations with Pakistan as part of its mediation efforts and not on direct dialogue with the US. He added that Iran’s position would be communicated through Pakistani channels. The diplomatic developments unfold against a backdrop of intensifying West Asia tensions, particularly around the Strait of Hormuz, a vital global oil route. The United States has significantly increased its military presence in the region, deploying three aircraft carrier strike groups, marking the largest such deployment since the Iraq war in 2003. According to US Central Command, the deployment includes more than 200 aircraft and around 15,000 personnel. As both diplomatic and military activities escalate, uncertainty remains over whether meaningful progress toward de-escalation can be achieved. While Pakistan continues its mediation role, the absence of direct Iran-US talks suggests that a resolution may still be distant, keeping the region on edge.
