Navid Mohebi, a political analyst, said the Trump administration has applied unprecedented pressure on the Islamic Republic with military strikes, sanctions and a naval blockade, but it has yet to receive the political price needed for tougher measures against the government.
He added that the more the Islamic Republic weakens, the greater the opportunity for the Iranian people to gain power and their role in determining the country's future. Also, the attacks attributed to the Islamic Republic in Europe may lead to the strengthening of the positions of the European countries against Tehran.
