Iranians feel the harshness of war under the oppression and intransigence of the regime: “People will not be able to continue living like this.”

Iran is currently facing significant economic instability characterized by rising unemployment and high costs of living that have made basic goods unaffordable for many families. While food supplies remain available in Tehran, the domestic population is experiencing increased financial hardship, leading to concerns regarding the sustainability of current living conditions under the existing political climate.

Simultaneously, the Iranian government, led by Parliament Speaker Mohamed Baqer Qalibaf, is calling for a strategic response to what it describes as a 'war' of cruel economic sanctions imposed by the United States. This position has received diplomatic support from China, which has publicly condemned the American economic measures, arguing that such attempts to isolate Iran lack a basis in international law.
