Iran responded to the US attacks asymmetrically, using its geographical position to counterbalance US military superiority, and it worked, said Robert Kocharyan, the second president of Armenia and the candidate for prime minister of the opposition "Armenia" bloc.

"Iran increased the scale of the war by attacking US allies in the region, where Washington had 13 military bases, and by closing the Strait of Hormuz.

The US announced that negotiations in Pakistan were held on 10 Iranian proposals. This is an unusual and surprising phenomenon. They reached agreement on a number of points, but agreement on several remained unattainable. Iran's steps worked.

In my opinion, they will reach an agreement. The only question is whether Iran is ready to make concessions or not. Or maybe they have realized their potential for self-affirmation.

[US President Donald] Trump's statement about his readiness to destroy an entire civilization has strengthened the unity of the Iranian people and the perception of what is happening as a patriotic war.

At the same time, a heated phase cannot be ruled out, given the unpredictability of the US leadership. In this regard, they have no other option than to conduct a ground operation, which will create a difficult situation for them. And the war cannot be won only by bombings, "said Kocharyan.

According to him, Iran and the whole world will never be the same.
