Security Body: War Objectives Achieved, US Forced to Accept Iran's Proposal
Iran’s Supreme National Security Council (SNSC) announced in a statement that almost all of Tehran’s war objectives have been achieved, stressing that Washington has been forced to accept a 10-point Iranian proposal that includes a permanent ceasefire, the lifting of all sanctions, and the withdrawal of American soldiers from West Asia.
In a statement addressed to the "noble, great, and heroic nation of Iran", the SNSC said the enemy had suffered an undeniable defeat and now saw "no way forward but to submit to the will of the great nation of Iran and the honorable Axis of Resistance".According to the statement, the United States has agreed to a 10-point proposal that fundamentally commits Washington to:• No new aggression against Iran• Continued Iranian control over the Strait of Hormuz• Acceptance of enrichment• Removal of all primary sanctions• Removal of all secondary sanctions• Termination of all UN Security Council resolutions• Termination of all Board of Governors resolutions• Payment of compensation to Iran• Withdrawal of US combat forces from the region• Cessation of war on all fronts, including against the heroic Islamic Resistance of Lebanon"Iran has achieved a great victory and has forced criminal America to accept its own 10-point proposal," the statement added.
The statement by the top security body described the past 40 days as one of the "heaviest combined battles in history", in which Iran and its allies in Lebanon, Iraq, Yemen, and occupied Palestine inflicted blows that "the historical memory of the world will never forget.""Iran and the Resistance have almost completely destroyed the American military machine in the region," it stated, adding, "They have inflicted crushing and deep blows on the vast infrastructure and capabilities that the enemy had built and deployed around the region over many years for this war against Iran."The statement said that within the occupied territories, Resistance forces had dealt "devastating and crushing blows to the enemy's forces, infrastructure, facilities, and assets."It further noted that the United States understood as early as 10 days into the war that it could not win."Not only did none of the enemy's main objectives materialize, but the enemy realized from about 10 days after the start of the war that it would have no ability to win this war," the statement read. "For this reason, through various channels and methods, the enemy began bids to establish contact with Iran and request a ceasefire," it continued.
The top security body further said the enemy had initially imagined a quick military victory, believing Iran's missile and drone capabilities would be "quickly extinguished", and noted that the "vile global Zionism" had convinced the "ignorant President of the United States" that the war would finish Iran.While declaring victory, the top security body also urged continued vigilance."We congratulate all the people of Iran on this victory," the statement added, "and emphasize that until the details of this victory are finalized, there remains a need for the resilience and prudence of officials and the preservation of unity and solidarity among the people of Iran."
In late February, the United States and the Israeli regime started their unprovoked military onslaught on Iran. Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei was assassinated in the first wave of strikes.The raids also led to the martyrdom of hundreds of civilians, including women and children, as well as military commanders.Iran began to swiftly retaliate against the assault by launching barrages of missile and drone attacks on the Israeli-occupied territories as well as on the US bases in regional countries. Iran has repeatedly emphasized that it only targets American assets and bases in the region and does not seek conflict with Arab countries.
