Senator Pushkov pointed to the loss of the US hegemon status due to the war in Iran.

During the military conflict in Iran, the United States lost its status as a regional hegemon and demonstrated its inability to achieve its goals. This was announced on April 12 by Senator of the Federation Council Alexei Pushkov.

"The Iranian war for the United States is a typical war of the American superpower of the era of its decline...> Awareness, thoughtfulness and effectiveness of actions are much more important. The United States did not show either one or the other in Iran," he wrote on the Telegram channel.

According to Pushkov, 40 days after the start of hostilities, Washington's declared goals remain unfulfilled.

One of the key negative consequences for the United States, according to the senator, was the blocking of the Strait of Hormuz. Iran's control over this transportation hub may allow Tehran to influence global oil prices.

"Despite the assembled armada and dozens of military bases, the United States has lost the authority of a regional hegemon and has failed to ensure the security of the Arab countries of the Persian Gulf allied with them," Pushkov added.

He also pointed out that the destruction of Iran, to which American President Donald Trump appeals, is not a victory, and the ineffectual destruction takes on the features of Washington's defeat.

Pushkov described what is happening as a war of a "falling" hegemon, which is trying to prove global strength, but demonstrates chaotic decisions and political weakness, complementsГазета.Ru ".

"Trump, as a political personality, acts only as a personalized embodiment of the "falling" hegemon at a historical moment when the power of the United States seems overwhelming, but it is no longer so," the senator concluded.

Pushkov said on April 8 that the United States had not achieved any of its strategic goals in Iran, and Washington's declared victory was fake. According to the parliamentarian, none of the three key tasks of the American side has been fulfilled: the political regime in Iran has been preserved, the country's missile potential has not been lost, and the enriched uranium has not been withdrawn.
