Do we fight and negotiate? Dr. Fawad Azadi Trump said yesterday: "The discussions continue. They want to talk and keep talking. To be honest, we have time. "This is a war, but not a conventional war." In recent months, Trump has repeatedly said that Iran is talking to him and wants to continue negotiations. Why does he insist on repeating this claim almost every day? 1. He wants to show himself as the stage manager and the characteristic of the other side; The one who directs the war and controls the course of Iran's behavior. 2. He wants to imply that even after killing the leader of Iran, he can leave the Iranian officials at the negotiating table and receive concessions from them as part of the negotiations. 3. He wants to show that the Iranian side, despite all the past experiences, is still in the negotiation space; Therefore, in the event of another US attack, Iran's response will likely be adjusted so that the path to negotiations remains open after the attack. 4. It is trying to create the impression that there is still hope for the success of the negotiations and as a result, the market should not prepare itself for the escalation of the crisis and the increasing increase in oil prices. 5. He wants to show that there are still officials in the world who are willing to negotiate with him and they still believe that the US government will meet its negotiating obligations. Therefore, the expression "we both fight and negotiate" is not only wrong, but also dangerous. The practical implication of such a policy is that some Iranian officials insist on not learning any lessons from past experience and even in the middle of the war, they maintain their hope of negotiating with a party that has repeatedly turned negotiations into a cover for pressure, deception and attack. The correct policy can be summed up in the words of Sardar Mohsen Razai on July 17: "The policy of war as well as negotiation is over." The frequent movement of "American mediators" is more than a sign of Washington's desire to reach an agreement, it is a tool for measuring the atmosphere of decision-making in Iran: are Iranian officials still in the mood for negotiations? Are they still hoping for an agreement with America?
