Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Qalibaf has declared that the Islamic Republic’s armed forces are fully battle-ready to deliver a crushing and well-deserved response to any aggression, warning enemies that mistaken strategies will lead only to disastrous results.
“Our armed forces are ready to deliver a well-deserved response to any aggression. Mistaken strategy and mistaken decisions will always lead to mistaken results. The whole world has already figured this out. We are prepared for all options; they will be surprised,” Qalibaf said firmly.
His remarks come as Iran continues its policy of strategic patience and maximum preparedness in the face of escalating threats from the United States and Israel.
Iranian officials have consistently stressed that Tehran seeks peace and regional stability, yet will never hesitate to defend its sovereignty with full force when red lines are crossed.
Drawing on decades of self-reliance, advanced missile and drone technology, and the unbreakable spirit of the Axis of Resistance, Iran has built a formidable defensive capability that leaves no room for enemy miscalculation.
In a follow-up post on social media, Qalibaf added: “There is no alternative but to accept the rights of the Iranian people as laid out in the 14-point proposal. Any other approach will be completely inconclusive—nothing but one failure after another. The longer they drag their feet, the more American taxpayers will pay for it.”
Qalibaf’s statement sends a crystal-clear signal that any reckless adventure by the enemy will be met with a surprise they cannot anticipate or withstand.
In response to U.S.-Israeli aggression, Iran has closed the Strait of Hormuz to shipping associated with the aggressors and their allies, sending oil prices soaring. Tehran began enforcing much stricter controls last month following U.S. President Donald Trump’s announcement of a blockade targeting Iranian vessels and ports.
U.S. warships that attempted to approach Iranian waters in recent weeks—in a desperate effort to break Iran’s control over the Strait—have been repelled by direct Iranian fire. That has nullified Washington’s promises to restore normal shipping in the Persian Gulf, further tarnishing the U.S. image as a global superpower.
