According to a report by The Telegraph cited by Amar Desh Online on March 29, 2026, Iran is seen to be on the path to victory in its ongoing confrontation with the Trump administration. Western intelligence agencies have long sought to weaken the Islamic Republic, but Iran’s leadership is reportedly maintaining control. The Revolutionary Guard Corps has become the dominant force in the country, and without a direct U.S. ground invasion, the regime’s collapse appears unlikely. Even leaders like Netanyahu and Trump are said to be exploring behind-the-scenes agreements rather than pursuing regime change.
The report identifies four main reasons for Iran’s perceived advantage. First, the regime’s survival itself is considered a victory. Second, Iran’s control over the strategic Strait of Hormuz has disrupted global oil supplies, forcing the Trump administration to negotiate. Third, Iran has turned the strait into a new source of revenue by charging fees to countries such as China and India for oil shipments. Finally, if Iran endures the conflict, it could use this income to rebuild its missile and nuclear capabilities, potentially emerging stronger in the coming years.
