Ahmad Naderi, a member of the Majles presidium, told House of ملت news agency: “The rules of our game in the Persian Gulf against our enemies are based on ambiguity, deterrence, and strategic surprise, and certainly we have mind-boggling surprises for the United States that we have not yet revealed, and this lack of certainty in their reaction is troubling for them.”

This member of parliament continued: “Our confrontation with the United States is not only based on power and traditional defense; the element of surprise, initiative, and changing the calculations of the other side is part of this competition, and this process will continue.”

Naderi added: “Trump has repeatedly said that they have destroyed Iran’s military power, but the very technology and equipment that are available to us today and have been displayed publicly and in front of the eyes of the global public once again shows the gap between political claims and realities on the ground.”
