Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian stated on December 27-28, 2025, that Iran is engaged in a “full-scale” or “full-fledged” war with the United States, Israel, and Europe. He described this conflict as multifaceted—encompassing economic sanctions, cultural influences, political pressures, and security threats—making it “more complicated and difficult” than the 1980-1988 Iran-Iraq War.
President Important Clarifications
This is not a formal declaration of war no parliamentary approval or military mobilization announced.
It appears as strong rhetorical escalation to rally domestic support amid economic hardship and signal defiance. No immediate military actions reported; Iran’s armed forces issued supportive president statements vowing to “crush” threats.
Global reactions remain cautious, with analysts viewing it as posturing rather than imminent hot war. Tensions stay high, but direct confrontation avoided since June ceasefire.
