The United States directs additional forces and funds in the Middle East in response to growing tension in relations with Tehran.

Parneell said that additional fighters will be transferred to the region, which will enhance the US Air Defense Potential.

Trump threats addressed to Iran
US President Donald Trump said that on March 7, he sent a letter to the leader of Iran Ali Hameni, which contained both threats and a call for negotiations.
Khamenei, in turn, said that the United States does not want to solve problems through negotiations, but tend to impose their requirements and establish dominance. He emphasized that Iran would not accept such conditions.
The letter was handed over to Iran through the United Arab Emirates a few days later, and Iran said that on March 27, through Oman, he sent his answer.
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Arakchi said that Tehran would not hold direct negotiations with the United States until Trump continues to threats, but the country is ready for indirect negotiations through intermediaries.
The minister also noted that negotiations will be carried out only on a nuclear problem, contrary to Trump’s requirements, and that the issue of the country’s defense capacity is closed for negotiations.
Finally, on the eve of Trump, he threatened the attack on Iran in case of refusal of a nuclear agreement. “If they do not make a deal, then the bombing will begin. It will be the bombing that they have never seen before,” the head of the White House emphasized.
March 31, Khamenei said that Iran considers it unlikely that President Trump would fulfill his threats against Tehran, but is ready to give a decisive response to any aggression.
Iran will work on the creation of nuclear weapons for self-defense in the event of an attack by the United States, on April on April said the Supreme Leader of Iran Ali Khamenei and ex-speaker of the parliament Ali Laridzhani.
“We do not move to (nuclear) weapons, but if you do something wrong in the Iranian nuclear problem, you will make Iran move towards this because he will have to protect himself,” he said on the air of the Iranian guest.
