Iranian MP Warns US Miscalculation Would Bring Painful Response

Ebrahim Azizi, chairman of the Iranian Parliament's National Security and Foreign Policy Commission, stated that if the United States once again makes a miscalculation and takes action contrary to Iran's national interests and security, it will face painful responses and devastating blows from the Islamic Republic of Iran. He emphasized the enhancement of Iran's deterrence capabilities in his remarks.

Azizi was responding to what he described as threats and bluster from the US president. He said that today the Islamic Republic of Iran has attained significant deterrence capabilities. Should the Americans persist in this misguided path, as in the 12-day and 40-day wars or the naval blockade, or commit further mistakes due to miscalculation, Iran has ample options to deliver painful responses, leveraging its defensive and military posture as well as its geopolitical standing in the region.

The senior lawmaker underlined that by taking advantage of these opportunities, tactics, and more advanced warfare equipment, Iran is more prepared and more ready than it was prior to the 40-day war, also known as the Ramadan War, and can give devastating and regrettable blows to the Americans.

According to Mehr News, Azizi's comments reflect ongoing tensions and Iran's stated readiness to respond to any perceived US aggression.
