The assassination of Iran\u2019s Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei, initially hailed in Washington as a decisive tactical victory, is rapidly reshaping the global balance of power.

He was killed along with 48 key regime leaders, including the IRGC commanders and the defense minister.<\/p>\n<p>President Trump, commenting on the operation on March 2, said that although the initial forecast was four to five weeks, the U.S. military has the capacity for a \u201cmuch longer\u201d confrontation. \u201cWe are already well ahead of schedule. No matter what it costs, we will do it,\u201d Trump stressed, effectively confirming a shift toward an open-ended war aimed at destroying Iran\u2019s infrastructure.<\/p>\n\t\t<aside class=\"shortcode-also\" data-title=\"Read also\" >\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/prm.ua\/en\/venezuelan-matrix-how-the-us-plans-to-change-power-in-iran\/\">\u201cVenezuelan Matrix\u201d: How the US Plans to Change Power in Iran<\/a>\n\t<\/aside>\n\n<p><strong>Fire in 10 Countries: The Geography of Regional Collapse<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The elimination of Khamenei triggered a chain reaction that took the conflict far beyond Iran&#8217;s borders.

The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Dan **Kain**, directly warned that the stock of interceptor missiles (in particular, Patriot) is critically depleted. The US has actually suspended some supplies to Kyiv to ensure &#8220;Epic Fury.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Trump administration is using the Middle East crisis as a pressure tool. Ukraine faces a June 2026 deadline to accept territorial concessions in return for a ceasefire, amid signs that Washington no longer considers the European theater a top priority.<\/p>\n<p><strong>A lesson in strategic subjectivity<\/strong><br \/>\nEvents between 2018 and 2026 suggest that Ukraine has increasingly been treated as a bargaining chip in Trump\u2019s geopolitical game. While American bombs are burning Tehran, Ukrainian statehood is being undermined from within by &#8220;moles&#8221; and corrupt individuals.<\/p>\n<p>Today&#8217;s lesson for Kyiv is obvious: the assassination of the Iranian leader will not save Ukraine unless the issue of internal responsibility for the surrender of the south and the &#8220;Omani schemes&#8221; is resolved. Ukraine must immediately regain its subjectivity by cleansing the power vertical; otherwise, June 2026 will be the date of the final capitulation, dictated by both the enemy from outside and the traitors from within.<\/p>\n<p>Also, follow <strong>\u201cPryamyi\u201d<\/strong> on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pryamiy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Facebook<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/prm_ua\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">X<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/t.me\/+rtV4dxYu2_cyNjVi\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Telegram<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/pryamiy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Instagram.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"><em>\u2022 Materials published in the \u201cOPINIONS\u201d section reflect the opinion of the author of the publication, who bears full responsibility for the accuracy of the information.<\/em><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"><em>\u2022 The editorial staff of prm.ua may not share the opinions expressed in the author&#8217;s material.<\/em><\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\"><em>\u2022 The owner of the webpage in the \u201cOPINIONS\u201d section is the author of the publication.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Source: Author&#8217;s Facebook page As of March 2, 2026, the world has plunged into a new phase of geopolitical turmoil triggered by the U.S.-led military campaign known as Operation Epic Fury.
