Zakharova: The U.S. Invasion of Iran Ended in "Catastrophic Defeat"

Maria Zakharova, spokesperson for the Russian Foreign Ministry, on April 8 commented on the ceasefire agreement reached between the United States and Iran, stating that the American tactic of launching surprise attacks without cause has utterly failed.

She emphasized that the current situation demonstrates that strategies based on escalating confrontation and the use of force are ineffective.

"All those previous assertions—that as long as one adopts a tougher, more aggressive stance and amplifies messages on social media, 'victory' seemed within reach—what was the result? This posture has once again suffered a crushing defeat," she said. In her view, unilateral aggression is destined to end poorly.

According to prior media reports, Trump announced that a ceasefire agreement had been reached with Iran, claiming Tehran had agreed to open the Strait of Hormuz. Iran declared victory over the United States. Israel also agreed to a ceasefire with Iran. Zakharova #MiddleEastSituation
