Here’s the English version of the interview that I gave to Müstəqil’s Sahile Cabbarova about the latest US-Iranian tensions.
Trump’s statements suggest that his administration expects the latest protests to weaken the Iranian government and possibly serve as the “publicly plausible” pretext for another round of American and/or Israeli strikes on the country.
Many observers assess that the US and Israel got the best of Iran during last summer’s 12-Day War and that its air defenses were greatly damaged. If that’s true, then another round of strikes could advance their strategic agenda there.
The questions for observers to ask are whether this is an accurate assessment; whether each or both have the political will to endure Iranian retaliation; and the extent to which non-state actors and/or neighboring states could exploit the strikes afterwards.
