Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, has accused the United States of trying to reshape global geopolitics through strategies that, in his view, are unrealistic and exist only on paper.
In a tweet shared today, Khamenei criticized U.S. policies, stating, "The U.S. is sitting and redrawing the map of the world on paper! But it’s only on paper and has no relation to reality whatsoever." He referenced various regions, including Gaza, the Gulf of Mexico, Greenland, and Canada, implying a broad critique of American influence.
His remarks come amid heightened geopolitical tensions, particularly regarding U.S. policies in the Middle East. The mention of Gaza is widely interpreted as a rebuke of Washington’s support for Israel, while references to other locations suggest a broader challenge to U.S. global dominance.
Khamenei has consistently accused the U.S. of seeking global hegemony through military interventions, economic sanctions, and political maneuvering. His latest comments reinforce Iran’s position that American attempts to dictate world affairs are doomed to fail, especially as global power dynamics shift and opposition to U.S. influence grows.
As tensions between Iran and the U.S. escalate, Khamenei’s statement is expected to intensify debates over American foreign policy. With ongoing conflicts in Gaza, economic competition with China, and increasing calls for a multipolar world, Iran’s leader continues to present his country as a strong voice against Western dominance in global affairs.
