The expert called the likely outcome of the conflict with Iran for the United States

Associate Professor of the Department of Political Analysis and Socio-Psychological Processes at the Plekhanov Russian University of Economics, Reserve Colonel Alexander Perendzhiev admitted the likely outcome of the conflict with Iran for the United States.

In conversation with aif.ru On Monday, May 4, the expert noted that the situation around Iran has entered a protracted stage of "neither peace nor war": the United States is not ready to leave the Middle East without victory, and Tehran, in turn, does not intend to make concessions. He stressed that both sides are acting with a certain stubbornness.

Perendzhiev pointed out that the United States remains unhappy with the current situation: an attempt to get out of the conflict with its head held high has failed. In his opinion, Washington is striving for a conflict where it will be possible to declare victory unequivocally, and in this context, increased pressure is possible, including with regard to Cuba.
