[108549] Mike Pompeo warns: Iran will not abide by agreements with the US
Former US Secretary of State, Mike Pompeo, calls on the US administration not to rely on Iranian promises and argues that Tehran must be proven to have no leverage against the US.
Mike Pompeo's statements regarding US-Iran relations
Former US Secretary of State, Mike Pompeo, issued a series of sharp statements today, July 2, 2026, against the Iranian leadership, warning the US administration against relying on Tehran's promises. According to Pompeo, there is no expectation that Iran will meet the terms of any understandings, since "the Islamic Republic has never kept its promises."
The remarks were disseminated across several Persian Telegram channels, including خبرفوری ࡆ اخبارفوری مذاکره ࡆ جنگ فوری, خبرفوری | اخبارجنگ فوری آمریکا, and ایکس فارسی ࡆ FarsiX. These channels are generally identified with positions critical of Iranian foreign policy and focus on reports regarding Iran-US relations and security developments in the region.
As part of his remarks, Pompeo emphasized his perception regarding Tehran's strategy: "They think they have leverage to deal with the United States; it is incumbent upon us to prove the opposite." This position reflects a hardline stance arguing that any attempt at dialogue or coordination with Iran is doomed to failure due to the Islamic Republic's lack of reliability.
The reports received widespread exposure on social media, with approximately 84,384 cumulative views among the channels that covered his words. It is evident that the message is intended to exert pressure on decision-makers in Washington not to ease their approach toward Iran within the framework of the diplomatic contacts taking place under current circumstances.
