US statements regarding the ongoing conflict with Tehran

US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent affirmed the difficulty of predicting how the military confrontation with Iran will stop as it reaches its eighth-month threshold. Bessent explained during television statements via the Fox News network that he is unaware of the term surrender in the Persian language, stressing at the same time that the Iranian side is collapsing and unable to secure the salaries of its fighters, and pointing to his uncertainty regarding the final scenario of this conflict. The minister recalled the sudden fall of the Berlin Wall incident, hinting at the possibility of a popular uprising, an internal coup within the ranks of the Revolutionary Guard, or a genuine desire looming on the horizon to reach a diplomatic settlement that cancels the nuclear program.
