IRGC Urges Americans to Pressure Trump

The IRGC issued a 25-page open letter addressed directly to the American people, seeking to communicate with them.

Spokesperson Hussein Moabi argued the US public is unaware of the true situation regarding actions in Iran. Moabi characterized President Trump's statements as 'big lies' and called for a withdrawal of US forces from the region. The IRGC insisted the letter is an attempt at direct communication rather than propaganda related to upcoming midterm elections.

President Trump predicted the war would conclude 'very, very soon,' signaling a swift resolution to the conflict. He asserted that Iran would not acquire nuclear weapons and foresaw a decline in global oil prices.

Trump highlights that historians would regard this intervention as one of the most significant actions undertaken by the United States.

Iran's chief negotiator, parliamentary speaker Muhammad Balib, promised 'hard, precise, and swift' responses if the country's security is compromised. According to Iran, no regional infrastructure would remain safe if its own security is not guaranteed.

Balib dismissed Trump's remarks regarding the Strait of Hormuz as 'baseless' and a mere repetition of previously made claims.

UK counter-terror police confirmed that no improvised explosive devices were found in the three vans searched. Authorities are investigating whether the suspects were unknowingly working for a foreign state.

This situation is prompting the EU energy commissioner to consider the release of oil reserves.

Additionally, concerns are rising regarding a potential diesel export ban from the United States, which could further strain European energy supplies.

Average UK fuel prices reached a record high on Monday, prompting the UK government to engage in continuous talks with the US to address the escalating costs. A diplomatic settlement in Iran is seen as a crucial solution to bring down these high prices.

Britain also intends to lead a multinational mission aimed at keeping the Strait of Hormuz open for international shipping.

Donald Trump has proposed the idea of a diesel export ban, despite facing internal pushback from within his administration. Energy Department leadership has indicated that such a ban is not currently under active consideration.

High fuel prices are a central issue for voters as midterm elections approach, particularly impacting agricultural states like Iowa and the transportation industry, which rely heavily on diesel. Texas Governor Greg Abbott is implementing measures to restrict diesel in an effort to lower prices.

Analysts warn that an export ban could lead refiners to reduce production, potentially worsening the long-term shortage rather than resolving it.

A diplomatic stalemate continues in relations between the United States and Iran, with President Trump reportedly having rejected a recent deal proposal. There is little expectation of a ceasefire being reached before the upcoming midterm elections.

Consequently, high oil prices are expected to persist for the foreseeable future, as an immediate resolution to the conflict appears unlikely.
