Pouyaam Zangouei, a researcher and expert in military and strategic affairs, said the coincidence of the proposal for negotiations by Donald Trump with the United States’ military strikes on the positions of the Islamic Republic is assessable within the framework of the strategy of “peace through power.”

According to him, by targeting radars, optical systems, and the launch platforms for cruise and ballistic missiles, the United States is seeking to weaken the Islamic Republic’s military and operational capabilities in the Persian Gulf.
