Iran’s previous restraint on nuclear weapons was largely attributed to its former supreme leader, who opposed them on moral and strategic grounds. However, that restraint may be changing due to the current war and leadership transition, with Iran likely reconsidering its nuclear and missile policies.
Ongoing destruction and civilian casualties in Iran are pushing the country toward a more aggressive, long-term strategy aimed at preventing future vulnerability.
Iran is unlikely to offer any “olive branch” for peace while under attack, viewing the conflict as existential and the West’s actions as aggression and terrorism.
From Iran’s perspective, a negotiated settlement would require major concessions from the West, including:
U.S. withdrawal from the region
Removal of American military presence in Gulf states
Relief from long-standing sanctions
Recognition of Iran’s control over the Strait of Hormuz
Iran believes it now has leverage through its position in the Strait of Hormuz and growing regional tensions, while many people in Arab states question why they are involved.
Despite heavy bombardment, Iran claims internal unity is increasing, strengthening public support for the government and military.
Iran asserts it is fully prepared for a long war, with underground military production still intact and operating continuously.
Overall, Iran appears committed to a prolonged conflict with large strategic goals, rather than seeking a quick diplomatic resolution.
