Iranian parliament security committee spokesman says US must surrender

Primary source Internal intake · 3 reviewed intake signals · Desk window 17:35–18:22

TL;DR

A spokesman for Iran's National Security Committee said the Iranian people do not surrender, and that in the current confrontation the US is the side that must surrender—presenting US President Trump with only two choices: surrender or surrender. The statement continues Tehran's maximalist public posture at a time of heightened regional tensions.

01 · THE DISPATCH

The spokesman for Iran's National Security Committee in parliament issued a defiant statement asserting that the Iranian people do not yield and that the United States is the side that must surrender in the ongoing confrontation. He framed the choice for US President Donald Trump as only between two forms of surrender, rejecting any possibility of Iranian concessions.

This statement follows a series of maximalist declarations by Iranian officials in recent days, as reported by The Zioneer. The country's defense ministry said enemies have no choice but to accept a ceasefire; President Pezeshkian stated Iran will not surrender; and Khamenei military advisor Mohsen Rezaei warned Washington that it must accept Iran's terms or lose credibility. The repeated messaging sustains Tehran's hardline public posture amid ongoing US-Israeli pressure and regional tensions, with no indication of flexibility in the official Iranian line.
