Iran's Ghalibaf Declares Collapse of Old American Order

Iranian Vice President Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf announced that the old American order has collapsed, according to a statement released by Iranian officials. Ghalibaf, who has served as Iran’s vice president and former commander of the Revolutionary Guard, used the phrase to describe the perceived decline of U.S. influence on the world stage. The statement was issued amid ongoing tensions between Iran and the United States, and it reflects Tehran’s view that the United States no longer maintains the same level of global dominance it once did. Analysts suggest that the remark may be part of Iran’s broader strategy to position itself as a counterweight to U.S. power in international affairs.
