        "content": "<p>Tehran \u2014 The Speaker of Parliament Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf said on\nWednesday that the United States is seeking to trigger a new war and\nforce Iran to surrender. He made the remarks after US President Donald\nTrump threatened to take military action if no deal is reached. Ghalibaf\nwarned that Tehran is preparing a strong response to future attacks\nsimilar to those carried out by the United States and Israel during the\nwar that began on 28 February. \u2018Enemy actions, whether overt or covert,\nshow that despite economic and political pressure, they have not\nabandoned their military objectives and are seeking to start a new war,\u2019\nGhalibaf said in an audio message carried by Iranian media. He added\nthat monitoring of political developments in the United States indicates\nthat Washington still hopes the Iranian people will surrender. The\nstatement comes amid high tensions in the Strait of Hormuz despite\ndiplomatic efforts reportedly mediated by Pakistan to prevent renewed\nclashes and to achieve a settlement. Separately, Saudi Arabia urged Iran\nto use what they call the current diplomatic opportunity to avoid\nfurther escalation. Saudi officials also thanked Trump for providing\nadditional \u2018opportunities\u2019 to reach a deal to end the conflict affecting\nthe Gulf region and global markets. Ghalibaf, who previously led Iran\u2019s\ndelegation during talks with Washington in Islamabad last month,\nstressed that Tehran will respond harshly to any new military action.\nTrump, on Tuesday, reiterated that Washington still holds the initiative\nand claimed that Iran is seeking to end the war.<\/p>",
