Iran’s president says his country is in a full-scale war with the West

On Saturday, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian said Iran is in a full-scale war with the U.S., Israel and Europe ahead of Benjamin Netanyahu's Monday meeting with Donald Trump.
The United States joined Israeli operations that bombed three Iranian nuclear sites after an unprecedented attack, while Western powers reimposed sanctions, Pezeshkian said.
A 12-day air war in June saw nearly 1,100 Iranians killed, including senior military commanders and nuclear scientists, while retaliatory missile barrages killed 28 in Israel.
Pezeshkian said Iran's military forces are stronger in equipment and manpower despite problems, warning any new attack would face a more decisive response, while Washington halted April negotiations with Tehran.
Looking back, he referenced the 1980–1988 Iran–Iraq war and noted that sanctions reimposed in September made the confrontation more complex, Pezeshkian said.
