The spokesman for Iran's Revolutionary Guards (IRGC) has dismissed the significance of Donald Trump’s presidency on the future of Iran. While Trump has vowed maximum pressure policy on Iran, Tehran's leadership have remained dismissive of its impact.
“Whether it is Donald Trump or any other president, the strategy remains unchanged, and nothing will alter our path,” said Ramezan Sharif on Monday, speaking at an event in Amol, northern Iran, commemorating the late IRGC commander Qassem Soleimani.
Sharif added that Iran’s stance remains consistent in the face of 46 years of US hostility, adding, “While American leaders have clung to their positions, we have steadfastly upheld our revolutionary beliefs and principles.”
Earlier in December, US president-elect Donald Trump's newly appointed Middle East advisor, Massad Boulos, said the incoming administration would revive its maximum pressure strategy against Iran, signaling a clear intent to enforce the country's isolation.
