Iran has declared that it will not surrender to U.S. pressure following recent warnings from President Donald Trump. Senior Iranian officials said the country has made 'astonishing' military preparations to face any potential attack. Reporting from Tehran, Al Jazeera’s correspondent Ali Hashem noted that Iran had already clarified its stance against capitulation under American pressure.

Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf stated that Iran would not yield or join any talks under blockade conditions, warning that the nation is ready with many 'surprises' if war resumes. The Khatam al-Anbiya headquarters, Iran’s top military command, announced full readiness to repel any assault. Multiple government officials, including from the judiciary, have expressed concern over the possibility of a major attack on Iran.

Officials have conveyed to the public that rejecting negotiations or surrender under siege could heighten the risk of war, emphasizing Tehran’s preference for military preparedness over accepting U.S. terms.
