Leader’s Advisor Warns Against Sacrificing Resistance for Hollow Promises

Ali Akbar Velayati, a senior advisor to the Leader of the Islamic Revolution, has warned against sacrificing the Resistance for hollow promises, saying sustainable peace grows from a balance of power rather than appeasing the enemy.

Velayati wrote in a post on his X account on Saturday that the “longstanding nightmare and historical fear of Western theorists regarding Iran’s rise to power has turned into reality, and a new geometry has taken shape.”

He added that the admission by Western media outlets Reuters and The Guardian of US President Donald Trump’s need for a temporary agreement to reopen the Strait of Hormuz indicates the “failure of the doctrine of threatening Iran” and the victory of the Resistance Front.
