Some analysts believe that the main purpose of the United States at present is to attack the Iranian economy through military deterrence and severe sanctions, incite the dissatisfaction of the Iranian people, and put pressure on the Iranian government. Therefore, the possibility of a war is not great.

Rouhani made a tough voice: resistance is the only choice.

Recently, the situation in the United States and Iraq has suddenly become tense because the United States lifted the sanctions exemption for eight Iranian crude oil importers.

According to CNN, the Iranian side believes that the current position of the US government on bilateral relations is "crazy" and "chaotic". On the evening of 19th, US President Trump sent a message on social platforms threatening Iran, saying that if Iran wanted to fight, it would be the official end of Iran. But then the U.S. government changed its attitude, saying that any provocative act by Iran would encounter "powerful forces", but the United States was also willing to negotiate with Iran.

According to Sputnik news agency & radio, citing the Iranian National News Agency, in response to the US remarks, Rouhani stated on the evening of 20th that all Iranian officials had reached a consensus and would stubbornly resist the US sanctions policy.

Rouhani said: "If we quit the Iranian nuclear deal just because of the provocative behavior of the United States, the United Nations and the whole world will impose sanctions on us, except the United States. I support negotiation channels and diplomatic means, but I will not accept it under the current situation. The current situation is not suitable for negotiation. We only have one choice, and that is resistance. "
