    MADRID - As early as February, analysts questioned whether any viable military solution existed that could guarantee US strategic objectives: regime change, the destruction of uranium enrichment capabilities, the end of Iranian support for groups such as Ansarullah, Hamas, and Hezbollah, and the dismantling of the ballistic missile program.

Washington and its allies not only projected power across continents; they largely shaped the language through which that power was understood. They decided who was the aggressor, who was the defender, whose violence was regrettable and whose violence was unforgivable. They possessed not merely armies but the authority to define reality.

Iran’s position regarding the Strait of Hormuz crisis is clear and non-negotiable: “Accepting Iran’s sovereignty over the Strait is the condition for a ceasefire and any kind of agreement.” This condition is not a maximalist demand but arises from on-the-ground realities and the provisions of the Islamabad memorandum, which had previously been agreed upon through Pakistan’s mediation.
