Iran's defense doctrine is undergoing rapid change, with the geography of threats no longer determining the geography of response, said Mohammad Mokbar, an adviser to Iran's supreme leader. "Iran's defense doctrine is developing rapidly. Naturally, the geography of threats no longer determines the geography of response, he wrote in X. "The redefinition of the scope of deterrence went beyond the regional framework, and the source, scope and location of the threats do not impose limitations on Iran's deterrence calculations."
