Published 10 March 2026 at 09.28
Foreign. Iran responds sharply to Donald Trump's claim that the war may soon be over. The Revolutionary Guards in Tehran is fighting back and claims it is Iran – not the United States – that determines when the fighting ends
The Iranian Revolutionary Guards attack after statements by U.S. President Donald Trump that the Middle East conflict could be near its end.
In a statement from the Revolutionary Guards, it states that Iran considers itself the initiative in the war.
"We're the ones who will decide when the war is over."
According to the guard, the region's future balance of power is also in the hands of Iran.
"The future status of the region is now in the hands of our armed forces. American forces will not end the war."
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Arathchi has at the same time declared that Iran will not agree to any ceasefire. This citing that the United States has now twice in a row pretended to have been interested in diplomacy, killed the Iranian negotiators and started war during ongoing negotiations.
Trump faded the scale of war on Monday, hinting at Iran's military capabilities being knocked out.
I think the war is pretty much over. They don't have a fleet, no communications, they don't have an air force," he said.
Shortly thereafter, however, the US president tightened the rhetoric and warned Iran against trying to stop oil supplies through the Strait of Hormuz.
In a social media post, he threatens sharp retaliation.
"If Iran does anything that stops the flow of oil through the Strait of Hormuz, they will be hit by the United States twenty times harder than before."
Trump also warns of widespread military attacks.
“In addition, we will strike out easily destroyed targets that make it virtually impossible for Iran to ever rebuild as a nation – death, fire and fury will hit them – but I hope and pray that it will not happen!”
At the same time, the Revolutionary Guard warns that oil exports from the region could be stopped completely if U.S. and Israel's attacks continue. One spokesperson said Iran will not allow even small amounts of oil to leave the area.
