Iran Prepared to Respond to Any Attack, Says Foreign Ministry Spokesperson

On April 2, U.S. officials revealed that several American intelligence agencies recently assessed that the Iranian government currently has no intention of engaging in substantive negotiations aimed at ending the U.S.-Iran conflict. These officials stated that the assessment report indicates that the Iranian government believes it is in a favorable position in the conflict and therefore does not need to accept the diplomatic demands put forth by the United States. The officials also noted that while Iran is willing to keep communication channels open, the country does not trust the U.S. and does not believe President Trump is serious about negotiations. Over the past year, Trump has ordered attacks on Iran twice while both sides were negotiating over Iran's nuclear program. The assessment findings align with recent statements from Iranian officials, who have dismissed Trump's claims that discussions mediated by other countries are making progress.

On April 2, according to Politico, U.S. President Trump is set to deliver an important speech during prime time on Wednesday evening, where he will announce that the month-long war with Iran is nearing its end. In interviews, social media posts, and public statements over the past 24 hours, Trump has conveyed this message, laying the groundwork for the upcoming address. According to six sources, Trump is expected to claim that all military objectives have been achieved during this speech. He also plans to harshly blame NATO allies for the unresolved major issue of restricted shipping in the Strait of Hormuz. As Trump prepares to deliver his speech, an additional 2,500 U.S. Marines are heading to the Middle East. The speech may primarily aim to alleviate voter concerns and Wall Street's anxiety over the energy market and the ripple effects of a potential closure of the Strait. Given that the conflict is still ongoing, this address provides Trump an opportunity to articulate the war's objectives, the so-called 'victory' standards, and how he plans to proceed if ceasefire negotiations stall.
