Mohammad-Bagher Ghalibaf, the Speaker of Iran's Parliament, has issued a strong warning to the United States regarding its military activities in the Strait of Hormuz. He criticized what he termed US 'theatrics' and pressure tactics, suggesting that such actions could provoke a military response from Iran. Ghalibaf's comments come amid rising US Treasury bond yields, which have surpassed 5% for the first time since before the 2008 global financial crisis, raising concerns over inflation and energy prices. He likened US military expenditures in the region to funding a 'live action role-playing' scenario, questioning the rationale behind such costly maneuvers. Ghalibaf emphasized that Iran has tightened regulations in the Strait of Hormuz as a countermeasure to perceived threats from the US and its allies. He reiterated that Iran would not engage in talks with Washington unless its demands—such as lifting sanctions and addressing past aggressions—are met. His statements reflect a broader sentiment in Iran that continued US provocations could lead to significant regional instability.
