The Iranian regime threatens the US at the UN and talks about giving a 'decisive response'

Iran's regime warned the United Nations that it will respond "decisively" if the United States carries out a military attack. In a letter sent to Secretary-General António Guterres and the Security Council, Tehran stated that it will consider US bases and facilities in the region "legitimate targets." The warning comes after President Donald Trump's ultimatum to reach a nuclear agreement within a period of up to 15 days.

The document was signed by Iran's ambassador to the UN, Amir Saeid Iravani. There, it keeps that Washington's rhetoric represents "a real risk of military aggression," although it states that Iran is not seeking to start a war.

Tehran raises the tone and targets US bases.

The letter is explicit. If there is an attack, all United States bases, facilities, and assets in the region will be considered legitimate targets.

The regime asked the Security Council to demand that Washington "immediately cease its illegal threats." However, the same text tries to appear open to a "reciprocal" diplomatic solution regarding its nuclear program.

Tehran also reacted to a Trump post in which the president hinted that he could use British military bases if there is no agreement. From Iran, officials described that statement as "belligerent."

Trump keeps military pressure

Meanwhile, the United States reinforced its deployment in the Middle East. Warships, fighter jets, and strategic equipment were sent to the region.

The objective declared by the White House is to prevent Iran's regime from developing a nuclear weapon. Tehran denies seeking that objective, but Washington distrusts its intentions.

Trump was clear. He demands a "meaningful agreement." Otherwise, he warned that "bad things will happen." He also assured that he could go "one step further" if there is no progress in the coming days.

Internal debate in Washington

The US administration is analyzing different scenarios. Among them, limited air operations against nuclear and missile facilities. It is also studying broader actions to weaken the regime's structure.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt acknowledged that there are still deep differences with Iran. However, she reiterated that diplomacy is the president's first option.

Iran's regime now faces a dilemma. It must either yield on uranium enrichment or expose itself to a military escalation.

Tension is rising and the clock is ticking. Trump's ultimatum is redefining the geopolitical board in the Middle East.
